Natural Grocers Kicks off Fifth Annual Beat the Time Change Blues Event
The mnemonic phrase “spring forward, fall back” may help many remember which way to adjust the clock at the start and end of daylight saving time but Natural Grocers, the largest family-operated organic and natural grocery retailer in the U.S., wants to help make this adjustment a bit more enjoyable with its fifth annual Beat the Time Change Blues event, March 11 – 14, 2023. The event is intentionally slated to run before and after the actual time change, to soften the blow of “losing an hour”. Customers will enjoy spectacular savings, free samples and sweepstakes at all participating Natural Grocers stores.
