LAKEWOOD, Colo., April 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Natural Grocers®, the largest family-operated organic and natural grocery retailer in the U.S., invites its customers to "hop over" for savings, recipes and unique Easter basket options for kids and adults, alike.
EASTER STAPLES WITH HIGH STANDARDS
Natural Grocers continues to offer Easter goodies in-line with its commitment to quality and community, believing that improving the health and wellbeing of farm animals is a crucial aspect of providing nourishment to our bodies. Maintaining standards while keeping prices affordable is a continuous commitment, which is why Natural Grocers works with farmers and animal welfare experts to source products that reflect our values. Though this continues to be a year-round endeavor, Easter is the perfect holiday to showcase some of these products and the practices behind them.
FREE-RANGE EGGS, THE NATURAL GROCERS WAY
Since Natural Grocers was founded in 1955, they've never sold eggs from caged hens. In 2017, they won the prestigious Good Egg Award [i] from the world's leading farm animal welfare organization, Compassion in World Farming, for their egg quality standards. The minimum standard for all Natural Grocers eggs is free-range and it's important to note that not all eggs labeled "Free-Range" measure up.
To meet the Natural Grocers' Free-Range Egg Standard the hens are never caged, they must spend time outside (and not just have "access" to the outdoors)on living rangeland with dirt, grass, bushes and trees, with bugs to hunt and dust to bathe in and with enough space to live as close to their natural inclinations as possible.
Their indoor space must be roomy enough and enriched so that they can thrive in an environment that encourages chicken-like behaviors: nesting, dust bathing, perching, preening and socializing. They are never given antibiotics. Their diet may not contain mammalian or avian by-products and humane animal husbandry practices are a must.
- {N}power members can enjoy Free-Range Eggs for $1.99 per dozen (limit 4 per customer).[ii]
BREAKFAST SAUSAGE & HOLIDAY HAMS
Rigorous standards aren't just for eggs. All meat products sold at Natural Grocers' 162 stores are held up in the same light. With a dedicated team of experts who research sustainable, humane and regenerative agricultural practices, they visit the farms and require proof of authenticity before partnering with local farmers and ranchers for its pork, poultry and beef products. Natural Grocers only offers selections produced in ways that seek to nurture the health of animals, its communities, and the planet.
Natural Grocers® is offering its customers easy, affordable Easter brunch options, including Beeler's pork products: humanely raised, vegetarian fed and no antibiotics. {N}power® members can feed a family of 6 for under $15 with Sausage Egg Bites [iii] or a Beeler's Ham as the centerpiece to their holiday feast.
- {N}power members can purchase Beeler's Select Pork Breakfast Sausages at $3.89 each (limit 2 per customer). [iv]
- {N}power members can enjoy Beeler's Uncured Bone-in Spiral sliced half hams at the Always AffordableSM price of $5.29/lb. (available while supplies last). [V]
