LAKEWOOD, Colo., Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Natural Grocers®, is proud to promote the new short film within its “Meet Your Farmer” film series: “From the Soil Up” in stores and online.
FROM THE SOIL UP
Raquel Isely, Vice President of Marketing at Natural Grocers, stated, “As a family-operated neighborhood grocer serving communities since 1955, we’re dedicated to making a positive impact on how food is grown and raised across the country. We’re committed to making a difference at every step, working closely with farmers, ranchers, and producers who match the passion we have for prioritizing the health of humans, animal welfare and environmental stewardship.
“In this film, you’ll experience the powerful role that these faithful farmers play in healing the land and bringing communities together through regenerative agriculture. Their commitment to “farming from the soil up” combines pasture-based grazing with eco-conscious practices to create products that drive positive change. We’re proud to share this inspiring story—just one example of the exceptional organic dairy farmers behind our Natural Grocers® Brand Organic Cheese.”
The company will be promoting the film online and in stores with printed and digital educational collateral through December.
THE “MEET YOUR FARMER” SERIES

Each film asks consumers to pause, to question the status quo of food production, all while evoking an uplifting, positive message of hope and transformation.
