The Founder of NH's Yogurt Empire

By John Walters on Tuesday, August 14, 2001.

Samuel Kaymen founded Stonyfield Yogurt in 1983. He started out as an engineer in the aerospace industry, but in the early 60's, he began to feel something was missing from his life. He took an iterest in organic farming and the environment and he and his wife moved to New Hampshire to try their hand at it. Stonyfield Yogurt was borne out of a desire to teach others about organic farming. Samuel talks about the beginnings of the business and the projects he's working on today. Stoneyfield Yogurt is at www.stoneyfield.com. This interview was orginally broadcast in March.
