Hi neighbors, Natural Grocers fam, and that cute little kitten peeking through the window across the street –

It feels like it's been forever since we've had a chat! What, with the holiday season barreling through December like a friendly tornado wrapped in twinkling lights and a lost Christmas ornament or two… but this letter isn't about last year!
