Find Organic, Local and Natural Foods at Kroger + $100 Gift Card Giveaway

Disclosure:  I attended an in store cooking demonstration and informational blogger event about natural foods at Kroger. I also received a gift card and fuel points for my participation.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.

When I shop at my local Kroger store several times a week, I’ve noticed an expanded Simple Truth organic and natural product line. I’ve purchased Simple Truth meats and canned vegetables so far. Thanks to a recent blogger tour I also learned Kroger is expanding its organic and natural food selection with a focus on

  • Local
  • Price
  • Variety

Keep reading for some of my family’s favorite things to buy and a way to win $100 Kroger Gift Card.

Natural Foods at Kroger

During our tour my 3 year old son A.J. had an opportunity to taste Arden’s Garden “Yoga” beverage filled with healthy fruits and vegetables like pineapple and kale. Plus, it’s green. His favorite color! Arden’s Garden is one of the locally owned and healthy offerings you’ll find at Kroger stores. I was a little surprised by how sweet it was considering the bright green color.

Kroger Fuel Points

Through February 15th and just in time for Valentine’s Day dates, you can earn four times the Kroger Points on  restaurant gift card purchases.

I learned something about my fuel points I earn each month. I wondered why I was only able to redeem 100 points (10 cents off per gallon) at a time at Shell stations. Last month, I had 400 fuel points thanks to my grocery purchases, prescription refills (50 points) and  for completing the shopper surveys (50 points) you find on receipts. According to the Kroger representatives, Shell stations only redeem 100 points per fill up. I need to go to a designated Kroger Fuel station to more than 100 points at a time. Thankfully, they helped me locate a station inside the perimeter that’s not too far from me.

Local brands like Frannie’s Gluten-Free baked goods treated us to samples. You’ll notice them at Kroger stores along with bulk items of nuts and grains.
