Giving Back

A true neighborhood market, that’s a part of the community

At Alfalfa’s, we believe it’s our responsibility to enrich and support our local community. Our sense of responsibility is fueled by our passion to help our customers and neighbors with the real issues that affect them and their families.

To that end, we’re not just a neighborhood market. We are an integral part of the community, located in the heart of Boulder. It’s where we do business, but it’s also where we live, work and play. If a part of our community is in need, then we would like to use our resources in an effort to help.

To help us accomplish this goal, we created a “five to thrive” set of criteria to determine the avenues, partnerships and programs that will help us give back and support our community in the best ways possible.

  1. To help eliminate hunger.
  2. To educate children.
  3. To care for and cultivate the earth.
  4. To partner with non-profit organizations with like-minded missions and philosophies.
  5. To support our community in times of need with relief efforts.

We’re always looking for new ways to give back and support our community. Today, our giving programs include:

Community Room

We have a great little room attached to our store, and when we’re not hosting events, we open it up to you, our community. You can hold private gatherings, public events, and whatever else you can dream up. Check out our Community Room Form and Guidelines for the rental form, to see if your event or group aligns with our guidelines, and to see if our room meets your needs.

Scrip gift cards

Now here’s a situation where a little bit of plastic is a good thing. Instead of paying with cash, check or credit, simply purchase prepaid Scrip Gift Cards that credit 5% of the gift card amount to your favorite organization. Buy yours from local nonprofits or schools in your community selling the gift cards as fundraisers. Just fill out our Scrip Gift Card Request Form, and turn it in to Guest Services.

Event Donations

Hey! Did you know that Alfalfa’s donates gift cards and tasty food to various fundraising events throughout the year? It’s just another small way that we support programs that enrich our local community. Fill out our Donation Request Form, and then turn it in to Guest Services or email it to donations@alfalfas.com.
