Natural Grocers plans to open its sixth Los Alamos, New Mexico, location on Wednesday, Oct. 28, at 1501 Trinity Drive. The new store will provide communities in and around Los Alamos access to fresh, 100-percent organic produce, high-quality organic and natural groceries, including 100-percent humanely and sustainably raised meats, 100-percent free-range eggs, and 100-percent pasture-based dairy, supplements, body care and household essentials.
In a region known for nearby national parks and miles of hiking, running and mountain biking trails, the store will expand offerings for shoppers who embrace a healthy, active lifestyle. It will be stocked with only USDA Certified Organic fruits and vegetables, fresh pre-packaged bulk goods, healthy snack packs, grab-and-go options and sports and performance nutrition products to quickly fuel up for outdoor adventures in and around Los Alamos.
Although Natural Grocers has postponed the Los Alamos grand opening celebration for the safety of its customers and employees due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the store will still feature grand opening specials from Oct. 28 through Nov. 11. These discounts include 100-percent organic produce such as Braeburn apples, red and green seedless grapes and Bosc Pears; pasture-based and humanely raised bacon and bacon alternatives; free-range eggs; and staple items such as GT’s Kombucha, Mary’s Free-Range Non-GMO Chicken and Natural Grocers Brand 2-lb. Organic Rolled Oats.

The store includes energy-saving innovations and non-toxic building materials throughout. Natural Grocers also prohibits hydrogenated oils, artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners and preservatives in the groceries it carries.
