Biography
Texas farmer and health-foods advocate who in 1960 founded Arrowhead Mills, the largest natural foods wholesaler in the United States. The company is based in his native Hereford, the seat of Deaf Smith County west of Amarillo in the Texas Panhandle. Arrowhead Mills removes impurities from corn and wheat and farms without pesticides.
Ford authored three books: "New Harvest" (a collection of his reflections and verse on national spiritual rejuvenation), "Pack to Nature: Nutrition Made Easy in the Home or in the Woods" and "The Deaf Smith Country Cookbook."
In 1999, Ford sold Arrowhead Mills to the Hain Celestial Group of Melville, New York, which maintains its public relations office in Boulder, Colorado. Arrowhead offers 220 items.
He died on 2 February 2011, aged 78, at Fallbrook, San Diego County, California.
