The
Vermont Milk Company launched a year and a half ago with great fanfare and a
promise to put more money in farmers’ pockets.
But
near-record prices have made it difficult for the company to pay farmers for
the milk it needs to make ice cream, cheese and yogurt.
As
VPR’s Ross Sneyd reports, the company hopes a new investor and a new
distributor are going to help put the operation back on its feet.
