Nature's Path
Nurturing people, Nature & Spirit. How Nature's Path Came To Be It may be hard to see when walking into one of our two modern cereal processing plants, but all of this took root on a simple family farm back in the 30s when Rupert Stephens inherited the the family farm, married Gwen, and embarked on the difficult life of a farmer. Mountain Valley Farm was 89 acres of hard living, a place to grow field berries and a family. The kids came along one by one. The youngest they called Arran, after a wind-soaked Scottish island. Arran's brother, Godfrey, went on to become a renowned artist www.godfreystephens.com who lives in Victoria, BC.

Stark Brothers Nursery
Stark Brothers Nursery
A growing legacy since 1816... In 1816, James Hart Stark and a small band of pioneers moved west from Kentucky and settled on the west bank of the Mississippi in a place that would later become Louisiana, Missouri. James Hart Stark brought with him a bundle of apple scions. From this bundle grew a thriving nursery business which became the world famous Stark Bro’s Nurseries and Orchards Co. By carefully selecting and propagating only the best varieties, James Stark started a tradition. Dedicated to earning a reputation for quality, Stark Bro’s gained world leadership as a developer and promoter of outstanding fruit varieties. The most famous of these was the Stark Red Delicious Apple in 1893. In 1914, the Stark Golden Delicious Apple was discovered and developed. This work led to an association with famed plant wizard Luther Burbank. He selected Stark Bro’s to carry on his work and willed over 750 varieties to the company. Paul Stark, Sr. was instrumental in writing U.S. legislation creating plant patents in the ’30s. Today, new fruit varieties may be patented just like other products. Stark Bro’s holds patents or exclusive propagation rights to many patented varieties of fruit. Today: Stark Bro’s continues to operate in the tradition of the past 190 years. Our president’s father was instrumental in setting up the Stark Garden Center in Louisiana. Stark trees have been grown on their family farm for many years and continue to be grown there today. In the Stark tradition, new and innovative products continue to be introduced through the Stark Bro’s catalog and web site, including the new Stark Kwik Krop™ Fruit Tree, the quickest bearing trees ever offered. Most of Stark Bro’s Custom Grafts and some fruit and nut trees are grown in “ ” pots to naturally air prune the roots, creating a dense mass that transplants and establishes quicker, eliminating loss due to transplanting, accelerating rate of growth and inducing early flowering and fruiting. Stark Mother Lode™ Berries are cloned from the tissue of only the finest, most productive mother plants. All are uniform in size, shape, quality and growth patterns, certified disease and virus free and potted to keep the root system intact. Tomorrow: Stark Bro’s intends to be at the forefront of the industry in innovation and productivity. You can look forward to many years of new Stark products to meet your fruit tree, small fruit, nut and landscaping needs in the future. As we move into this new century, look for us. We will be there.
