GREENAPPLES MISSION
Our mission is to develop programs that will allow our employees and customers to work together toward building a more sustainable environment for our local community. Our first initiative is called Treecycle!

TREECYCLE REUSABLE BAG PROGRAM
Here's how it works . . . .

1. Every time you purchase a Native Sun Treecycle reusable grocery bag, we will donate 5¢ to Greenscape of Jacksonville, a local nonprofit organization planting trees in our community.

2. Every time you use your Treecycle bag or ANY reusable grocery bag in-store, you will earn 5¢ per bag off your total purchase OR the chance to donate your 5¢ per bag to Greenscape of Jacksonville. It’s your choice! How would you like to use your refund?

3. Every two weeks, we will distribute a one-of-a-kind button that represents a green effort in one of our departments. The buttons are designed to sit atop the swirls on your Treecycle bag. Collect all 12 and watch your tree grow!

A GREENER GROCERY - OUR PROMISE TO YOU
Native Sun is always looking for ways to make your shopping experience “greener,” whether it’s switching to juice cups made from biodegradable non-GMO corn or stocking only biodegradable produce bags in our certified organic produce department.

Look for our “Greener Grocery” posters and tags around the store to learn about all the green efforts we already have in place and what you can do to be a green shopper.

 

 
 

 

Thank you For your Participation!

Since Earth Day 2008, Native Sun customers from both stores have purchased over 3,800 Treecycle Bags! By purchasing these bags and using them in store . . .
