Natural Grocers Donates $71,000 in Products to Food Bank of the Rockies

Natural Grocers, the nation's largest family-operated natural and organic grocery retailer, has marked the start of its 71st anniversary celebration with a $71,000 product donation to Food Bank of the Rockies. The donation was made in collaboration with Colorado-based Pop Your Vitamins, a functional vitamin soda company.

The contribution includes thousands of healthy snack items from Natural Grocers, such as trail mixes, nuts, and seeds, alongside over 20,000 cans of functional wellness beverages from Pop Your Vitamins.

"We're honored to support Food Bank of the Rockies and grateful to collaborate with Pop Your Vitamins as we kick off our anniversary celebration."
