It’s rumored that kombucha dates back as far as the Qin Dynasty, in 221 BC, which makes us wonder—is the original SCOBY still around? Jokes aside, Natural Grocers Brand Kombucha has its own original take on this fermented drink. A smoothly balanced brew—it’s raw, pure, and tangy, with less of that vinegary taste that ‘booch-haters hate. And its delicate flavor is enhanced with botanicals like lavender, hibiscus, and ginger. An ancient drink reimagined in delicious style seems like the perfect tonic to pair with studying, right?

Treat the kids to a delicious cultural history lesson with this Natural Grocers Brand specialty—Neapolitan Style Frozen Pizzas made in Italy. As you serve a freshly baked Margherita Pizza, tell them it’s reportedly named after a queen! Some say the traveling Queen Margherita and her husband were bored of fancy French food when they visited Naples, Italy, in 1889, so they asked for the city’s specialty: pizza. The queen’s favorite was topped with basil, tomatoes, and fresh mozzarella, and ever since it’s been called the Margherita. Our Certified Organic pizzas are hand stretched and wood-fired—a simple, weeknight meal solution with flavor fit for a queen.
‘Twas the night before school started, and the backpacks were stuffed with books and back-to-school supplies. But we suspect something was missing—Natural Grocers Brand Snack Packs! A 2017 study, which included pistachios, cashews, and almonds (all featured in our Snack Packs), found that regular consumption of nuts strengthens brainwave frequencies, including those associated with memory and learning. And that makes these Certified Organic nuts, seeds, and trail mixes, in backpack-friendly sizes—a no-brainer!
The world’s largest sandwich (made in Michigan) weighs 5,440 pounds, according to The Guinness Book of World Records. And rumor has it that in 2008 another country was trying to beat that record, but the hungry crowd of spectators ate the sandwich before they could weigh it! When you make sandwiches with Natural Grocers® Brand Organic Sprouted Bread—they won’t break records for size. But they will satisfy a hungry crowd of kids with their just-right texture and nutty, whole-grain flavor!

Perhaps if Ferris Bueller’s brain were fueled by medium chain triglycerides (MCTs)—he wouldn’t have taken the day off! Banter aside, hack your performance this school year with Natural Grocers Brand C8 MCT Powder! This unique formula boasts 100% pure C8, which is short for caprylic acid. As one of the most efficient MCTs, the liver can quickly convert C8 into energy, and it’s been shown to support a variety of outcomes, including healthy weight management and enhanced ketone production. Plus, ketones readily cross the blood-brain barrier, supplying a clean source of brain fuel. Everyone needs a day off, but Natural Grocers® Brand C8 is here to support you through the long haul when you can’t play hooky.*
Who’s ready for a nutritional history lesson about vitamin K? This essential nutrient acquired its name because the Danish researcher who discovered it called it the “koagulations-vitamin” due to its role in normal blood coagulation. And voila—it’s been vitamin K ever since, with two primary forms identified: K1 & K2. The real star of this story, K2, supports the normal, healthy function of your bones and cardiovascular system by directing calcium from the bloodstream to the bones where it belongs. Pretty rad, right? Even better is this—Natural Grocers Brand Vitamin K2 MK-7 delivers one of the most bioavailable forms of K2! Don’t work yourself to the bone this school year, but do support your osseous (bone) issue.*
