Earlier I mentioned Ben Cohen’s and Jerry Greenfield’s visit during out time spent in Burlington for Ben & Jerry’s Fair Trade 101 event. Well, soon after I posted my take on their belief in fair trade, Greenopolis, a site to which I occasionally contribute, released this interview with Ben & Jerry. It was great having Greenopolis there—they have over a million visitors a month and this interview captures the spirit of the boys of Burlington who did good. Melissa McGinnis also gives a great whimsical tour of Ben & Jerry's headquarters.
