Round up at the register & Apples for Gardens

May 2025

This month, you can round up at the register at our Auburn store to support Auburn Trails Alliance and Citizens for Choice at our Grass Valley store. Plus, we’re helping gardens grow for local schools and community gardens with every pound of apples sold. This month, we’re supporting the gardens at Live Oak Waldorf School and Yuba River Charter School.

Strengthen Your Core.

There’s nothing quite as a-peeling as apple crisp, whether it’s winter, spring, summer or fall. Try ours, which uses granola (hey there!), it’s easy peasy, and made with our very best (and fantastically priced!) Field Day ingredients.
