Ladybug Love Our Neighborhoods

We have an exciting, long-term partnership with Beyond Pesticides. Part of that partnership includes fundraising campaigns throughout the year, specifically for Earth Day in April and Organic Month in September. Natural Grocers is a longtime leader of the organic movement through its national advocacy efforts. We are proud to partner with Beyond Pesticides to further the critical mission of converting local parks and playing fields to pesticide-free management practices to make them safer for kids and pets to play in.

Pledge to Protect Beneficial Insects

Join the 7th Annual Ladybug Love Pledge Today!

Take The Ladybug Love Pledge Today!

 

This Earth Day, Natural Grocers is celebrating our seventh year of our Ladybug Love Pledge—our way of championing creatures that we sometimes take for granted: insects. They may seem insignificant at best and pests at worst, but insects play a crucial role in the stability of our food supply and their decline cannot be ignored!

You can pledge for the first time or renew your commitment to protecting beneficial insects every year with the Ladybug Love Pledge. For every pledge, Natural Grocers will donate $1 to Beyond Pesticides.*

PLEDGE NOW

 

*Pledge must be made between 4/1/2024 and 4/30/2024 at naturalgrocers.com/ladybuglove to qualify for matching donation. Following the pledge period, Vitamin Cottage Natural Food Markets, inc. will make a single matching donation of up to $25,000 in support of the Beyond Pesticides fundraiser.
