If you’re conscientious about buying certified organic food, you will be interested to read this blog. Organic is very important, but is not the complete picture when it comes to natural, safe, and effective agricultural practices. There is a newer label to look for. You might already be seeing this new label on food, especially on meat products. Introducing: “Regenerative Agriculture.” This is a very complicated topic that this blog will only lightly explain, but excellent documentaries and reading material are included if you wish to learn about it more in depth. 

We are excited because we now offer more Regenerative options! We are proud to offer food options that are part of the solution. 

There has been so much buzz about collagen! It improves hair, skin, and nails. It's great for your joints. It can improve organ health. And the list goes on!

​There are so many different collagen options, it's hard to know where to begin. In this blog we will explore Vital Protein's collagen options to help you make an informed choice. Hint: you're not going to choose a wrong Vital Proteins collagen.

Lydia is a member of our health squad, and also a certified Yoga Instructor! She wants to share with you a couple of instructional yoga videos to help you strengthen your Mind-Body connection. These are designed for beginners with no prior yoga experience. 

​Thank you for watching and practicing with us!

Nancy is Part-Time and has been with Terry's for 7 months!

She has a great deal of experience and wisdom with natural health, especially with understanding how to find what is best for each unique and individual person. She is eager to listen to you and help you discover the right options for you!

"I've been in the health care business a long time. I've been a massage therapist for 32 years, and I've had my own practice up until about 5 years ago. Now I'm working with people over the age of 70. Right now my favorite modalities of massage are Healing Touch and Reiki, which are energy medicines. I also do the Swedish, Sports, and relaxation massage techniques."

"I feel very lucky to be a part of the team at Terry's. I feel young at heart when I'm here. The people I work with, they have a wealth of knowledge, they have come from different walks of life and I enjoy that diversity. I really enjoy that they have a wealth of knowledge about the products that are here in the store. I feel like a beginner every time I walk in the door. I'm very lucky about that. You know, Terry's goes back to when I was a little girl. My mother, who is now deceased, she came in here every week. She knew Terry, who was very well liked, and so I feel very honored to be able to be a part of continuing that legacy here at Terry's."  

I have been part-time with Terry's for 6 years! This year I became a Social Media Contributor. You will see my work on Facebook, Instagram, and this blog. Yes, I am the author of the Terry's blogs you've read this year!

You might recognize me as the one wearing the Terry's apron and spending in-depth time with each customer. I really enjoy my job because I care a lot (as in, this is my life's passion) about helping people find a better quality of life through managing their health, creating a healthier environment for everyone, and adopting a more organic and natural lifestyle. Nothing makes me happier than when customers return and tell me how well our recommendations worked for them!

I was attracted to working at Terry's because of my own health journey. There are a lot of food and environmental allergies and sensitivities in my family, and so I grew up always thinking about making choices that wouldn't harm myself or my family. I became a master of reading labels and researching ingredients to protect myself and my family. I did not outgrow all of my allergies, and then in my 20's I developed some life-changing chronic illnesses. After getting really sick for a couple of weeks with a terrible virus and getting poisoned by black mold, I never fully recovered. I was bedridden for a little while before finding a tremendous amount of help from a Naturopathic Doctor, and I was able to find wonderful medical specialists who studied me and diagnosed me with a laundry list of conditions. For the past 9 years my life has completely revolved around managing my health, which is why I only work part-time. I have had the most success managing naturally (with the help of my doctors and practitioners) with food, non-toxic body care, herbs, supplements, and physical therapies. I'm still learning and discovering every day, and I love that I am able to come to work and talk about solutions with our customers who also need help!

We're happy to announce that we are offering a new locally made healthy supplement for you! This Sea Moss Gel is made by Purposeful Apothecary, based out of Williston, North Dakota. You will find it in our refrigerators.

Irish Sea Moss, otherwise known as Red Seaweed, is a type of seaweed that is a superfood! This means it is packed full of nutrition and is considered to be especially beneficial for health and wellbeing.
