Fresh, crisp, organic produce. Amazing selection of gluten-free AND dairy-free options from breads to desserts to frozen foods...blows away ALL other stores in the valley, including Whole Foods! My eyes popped when I saw the MANY kinds and styles of dairy-free cheeses! Every time I go in something is on sale.
Like brewed ginger beer? They have at least 8-10 brands with many flavors in bottles, cans, whatever! Nutritional supplements galore, and knowledgeable nutritionists happy to assist you for free. I stopped buying online and now buy from them...I've really missed handling the bottles and getting my questions answered real-time. Turns circles around Healthy Habit for variety. In store seminars, too. I first experienced them in Colorado and waited 5 years for them to come down here.
Need personal products w/o fragrance or additives? Natural Grocers has large selections of skin and hair care for sensitive people. Even selections of organic hats, socks, make-up, etc. If you like or require Organic, Natural Grocers is the place for you...they are the ONLY grocer committed to non-GMO and organic products throughout the store. Neither Sprouts nor Whole Foods can claim that.
Not a single GMO item in the store! All products are researched carefully. Formerly Vitamin Cottage. It's a joy to not have to worry about the produce, as ALL is organic or sustainably grown. I rarely buy from Sprouts anymore...inferior company more interested in profits than customer satisfaction, pushing their own pricey brand while reducing other brand choices, taking out food isles to expand their liquor sales. Expensive pesticide and GMO produce (might as well buy from Food City). Their stores are loaded with corn syrup/high fructose corn syrup--can't find marshmallows w/o HFCS, while Natural Grocers doesn't sell HFCS. Big difference!
Natural Grocers is a wholesome company truly invested in our health and we'll being! Thank you Natural Grocers!
