It's an honor to continue the mission defined in our Five Founding Principles, by bringing the families of Northeast Denver the kind of grocery store they have waited so long to have," said Kemper Isely, Natural Grocers Co-President.
Although Natural Grocers has postponed Green Valley's Grand Opening celebration during the pandemic, for good4u CrewSM and customer safety, the store will feature grand opening specials from May 20 through May 31. These will include celebratory discounts on organic produce, meat, and staple items such as organic avocados, organic blackberries, organic portobello mushrooms, and Mary's non-GMO chicken.

The prepackaged bulk selections are 100-percent non-GMO with many organic options, and the company's grocery product standards prohibit hydrogenated oils and artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, and preservatives throughout.
