The Natural Grocers Beef Sticks & Bites are the brand's latest addition to its private label offerings that are arriving at the perfect time to coincide with the entertaining season. The product range includes 100% grass-fed beef that has been hand-cut and packaged by hand, and comes in four varieties that are packed with protein. The range includes beef sticks and beef bites that, while well-suited for enjoyment out of the house, are also great for incorporating into a seasonal charcuterie board for pairing with cheeses.
VP of Marketing Raquel Isely spoke on the Natural Grocers Beef Sticks & Bites saying, "Many beef jerky sticks and snacks on the market claim to be grass fed but lack certification. Our beef sticks and bites are source verified to ensure traceability from the ranch to your pantry. We’re proud to bring these new offerings to our shelves, delivering top-notch taste, trusted quality and affordability."
