Dow Jones Description

Our roots in farming. We started on a farm in Wilton, New Hampshire, in the early '80s. We began as an organic farming school committed to teaching sustainable agricultural practices. Samuel Kaymen, one of the country's early authorities on organic and bio-dynamic agriculture, was our school's founder and chairman. Gary Hirshberg, our current President and CE-Yo, was an environmental activist, windmill-maker, author and noted entrepreneur when he joined Samuel on the farm. At first, we sold yogurt only to fund our school. We had a few Jersey cows and a great-tasting yogurt recipe. Samuel and Gary did most of the work back then. They milked the cows, made the yogurt, made sales calls and even delivered the yogurt. As our business grew, we realized that a successful yogurt company could serve sustainable agriculture and the environment better than our school could, so we decided to run with yogurt. In 1988, we moved 30 miles east of Wilton, to our custom-designed "Yogurt Works" in Londonderry, NH, where we remain to this day. Environmentally and socially responsible, and profitable, too. We're now the world's leading organic yogurt-maker. Our all natural and organic yogurts, smoothies, soy-yogurts, ice cream and milk are sold in supermarkets, natural foods stores and colleges nationwide. We're still working to promote sustainable agriculture, and protect and restore the environment...
