Moth & the Flame (Hardcover Book)

The riveting autobiography of Nature's Path Organic Foods founder, Arran Stephens, Moth & the Flame intertwines the spiritual and entrepreneurial, chronicling a life shaped by the enlightened wisdom of three great mystical guides, and an unrelenting quest for truth—both within the heart and in the soil. A pioneer of the organic food movement, Arran’s journey began as a young man in the 1960s with a transformative sojourn to India that set him on a course toward meditation and inner firsthand mystical experience. Inspired by his beloved teacher's encouragement and a compassionate diet, Arran opened Canada's first vegetarian restaurant, and later established Nature’s Path alongside his wife, Ratana. From humble beginnings in 1985, the couple built their vision of quality organic foods into North America’s leading organic breakfast cereal and snack food company. Now run by their son, Arjan Stephens, Nature’s Path continues to thrive on the family's mission of purpose-driven business.
