274. How a Small Health Food Store Became a Community Hub for Holistic Wellness

Jill Bickford is the co-owner of Natural Foods Market, a family-owned health food store dedicated to making a heartfelt difference in the lives of customers and the community by providing products and resources that promote healthy lifestyles.

Natural Foods Market’s vision is to create an environment where all staff and customers feel encouraged, educated, and empowered to take control of their health and wellness journey.

Natural Foods Market is celebrating our 45th year in business and with that our focus has been carrying out our vision for the store - mainly through education. We have always done a lot of staff education, and this year brought back our in-store community centered education.

What started as a proposed 4 event series has turned into an almost monthly series. June 9th is our next Community experience where we will have Yoland Mabry, a holistic nurse practitioner, speak to guests. "Continuing the Conversation: Healthy habits and Cancer support". We call this series "VIP Shopping Experience and Community Lecture" It is a ticketed event where we close the store at 6 and only reserved tickets are part of the evening event. We start with a meal and the conversation of topic followed by exclusive/discounted shopping.
