UNDER : UNCATEGORIZED New Store Hours, Curbside Pickup and More APRIL 8, 2020 Dear Valued Customers, We are reaching out to update you on how Green Life Market is actively taking reasonable precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19. First and foremost, we want to reiterate how serious we are about keeping our customers and staff safe and healthy through these times. During this time of uncertainty, our staff at Green Life Market are fully committed to providing you with the essentials you need while maintaining a safe environment for all. To date, we have taken the following precautionary measures: Revised Store Hours: Beginning on Tuesday, September 8th our store hours will be extended to 9:00 am – 7:00 pm on weekdays and 9:00 am – 6:00 pm on weekends. We would also like to continue to implement hours for our senior and immune compromised customers. These hours will be 8:00 am – 9:00 am on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This will ensure that these customers are at less risk and feel more comfortable while shopping at our stores. We believe that implementing these new hours is in the best interest of the entire Green Life community. Curbside Pickup: We are now offering a curbside pickup for all. This service is available Monday- Saturday, between 10 am and 6 pm. We request that all curbside pickup orders consist of 30 items or less.

UNDER : UNCATEGORIZED Morristown Location Closing FEBRUARY 3, 2020 Dear Valued Green Life Market Customers and Members: As many of our Morristown customers may already know, we are sad to announce that as of this March (2020) we will be closing our doors to the Morristown location due to the redevelopment of the Morristown Plaza Shopping Center. Green Life Market, along with all of the other businesses in the building, were informed by our landlord, Scotto Properties, that as of April 1st 2020 we must have all of our belongings removed from the premises. As lessors of the space we were aware of the redevelopment plans happening in Morristown Plaza, however we were under the impression we would have until at least the end 2020 to find a new space and relocate our business in the Morristown area. We have been working hard to find a space that would be in the best interest of our Morristown customers, our employees and our business. We have yet to find a space that fits those needs, however we will continue our search for a space that will serve the greater Morristown area. If you have any knowledge of a real estate opportunity for our store please reach out to info@greenlifemarket.com. Our current needs include a minimum of 5,000 sq ft and a minimum of 25 parking spaces. This location has been a health food store serving the Morristown community for almost 50 years and its heartbreaking for us to know that the customers who have supported the independent retailers who occupied this space will no longer have the ability to continue to do so. We know that many of our customers have built relationships with some of the staff who have been working here for over 20 years and we’re happy to announce that many of the Morristown employees will continue to work at Green Life Market in our other locations. We understand the impact that this is going to have on our lifetime members that primarily shop in this location. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and hope to regain your business when we relocate to the Morristown area in the near future. In the meantime we invite you to come and shop in our other two locations located in Butler, NJ and Andover, NJ. We will continue to include all members in our monthly emails and will continue to offer coupons and aggressive promotions for membership appreciation day each month. If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to reach out to us at info@greenlifemarket.com. We do not have a definitive closing date but will be saying our goodbyes this March. Until that time, we will be offering a store wide 30%-50% discount as a liquidation sale. If you would like to stay up to date about the store closing and the opening of new Green Life Market locations please follow us on social media at @GreenLifeMarket. Sincerely, The Yassin Family UNDER : NEWS Our Response to the Coronavirus FEBRUARY 3, 2020 This has been a very difficult and scary time for everyone and we would like to thank all of our customers for being so supportive and understanding as we navigate through the increased demand during this time. We’d also like to thank our staff for continuing to come in and working tirelessly everyday to fill the shelves and implement new cleaning practices so that our customers can shop safely while still getting the products that they need. Our staff is at the forefront during these stressful and chaotic times and we ask that our customers please be mindful and respectful while shopping in the stores. While we have experienced a few minor issues with distribution and supplies, we do expect to continue getting deliveries to our Butler and Andover locations multiple times throughout the week. We do ask that everyone please be mindful while shopping and follow these few simple tips to encourage safe shopping practices: 1) Please try to minimize the number of people that are shopping in your family. We ask that if you can, avoid bringing in children and only send one family member to do the shopping at a time. 2) Minimize the number of times that you’re coming into the store by stocking up for multiple days at a time. 3) Practice social distancing while shopping and be mindful of others around you. 4) Do not come in the stores if you’re experiencing any of the following: a fever, coughing or shortness of breath. 5) Let any elderly shopping in the store checkout ahead of you so that they can get in and out as soon as possible. We have also made the following changes in response to COVID-19 until further notice. Special Hours We will have designated shopping hours for seniors and immunocompromised individuals on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:00am to 9:00am. Deli Closed Our deli and juice bar will be closed in both locations as of March 23rd. However we will continue to do our best to offer wraps, salads and other select items in our Grab ‘n’ GO deli cases. We appreciate your cooperation and wish everyone good health and peace of mind through this time of uncertainty. UNDER : NEWS Why Drink Kombucha? FEBRUARY 8, 2018 Kombucha has been around for years and yet only recently did it start becoming a hot trend in the health industry. But what is kombucha and why should you drink it? What is Kombucha? In simple terms, kombucha is fermented tea or sometimes referred to as “mushroom tea”. It is most commonly made using black tea and requires a SCOBY (aka “the mother”) and sugar. SCOBY stands for Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast and that’s exactly what it is! It’s the home for good bacteria and yeast that ferments the tea. Have you’ve ever seen a bottle of kombucha and noticed the weird cloudy stuff floating around? That’s the SCOBY! What are the health benefits? Kombucha has a wide range of health benefits but it’s most commonly known for containing high amounts of probiotics. As you may already know, probiotics are great for gut health and after being nicknamed our “second brain” we have come to learn the importance of having a healthy gut. Probiotics (aka good bacteria) are great for helping aid in digestion, balancing your gut flora, boosting your immune system and more! In addition to probiotics, kombucha is also recognized for it’s powerful antioxidants, digestive enzymes, beneficial acids and detoxifying properties. Where can I get kombucha? At Green Life Market we carry a variety of kombuchas at all three of our locations. Our most popular kombucha is our kombucha on tap from AquaVitea. If you’ve never tried kombucha before it’s a great way to taste it and see what it’s like! Other customer favorites include GT’s Kombucha , Health-Ade Organic Kombucha, Live Soda Kombucha, Buchi, Kevita and more. UNDER : LIFESTYLE BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM & BEAT THE WINTER SEASON!
