sweetgreen Tours the Stony Field Yogurt Plant

October 27, 2009

This past Friday the sweetgreen team had the opportunity to tour the facilities of Stonyfield Yogurt in Londonderry, New Hampshire. The guys got fitted out in all the gear and were very impressed with the operation. In fact, it is Stonyfield Yogurt that is a big part of the Sweetflow recipe. The founder of Stonyfield, Gary Hirshberg, serves as a big inspiration for all of us here and we would like to thank him for letting us visit. If you get a chance check out Gary’s book, Stirring It Up: How to Make Money and Save the World, which explains the company’s sustainability focused philosophy that led to Stonyfield’s success. Here is what went down:
