Natural lifestyle history: Look how far we’ve come
Mustard Seed Market & Cafe, Akron, Ohio
Founded in 1981 in Akron, Ohio by Margaret and Phillip Nabors, Mustard Seed Market was a pioneer with their strict ingredient standards, including "no artificial colors, flavorings or harmful chemical preservatives, no saccharin or aspartame, no irradiated foods, [and only] meats raised without the use of growth hormones and never fed animal by-products."
Today, Mustard Seed continues to be a family-owned and operated business with an additional location in Solon, Ohio. The Nabors' children are all involved in the company and preparing to lead it into the future. The photo on the left shows Mr. and Mrs. Nabors in 1992. In January 2012, Phillip Nabors graced the cover of Natural Foods Merchandiser (right photo).
