Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, friends since the 7th grade, opened their Ben & Jerry's ice cream shop in a renovated gas station in downtown Burlington in 1978. Over 30 years later, Ben & Jerry's super premium ice cream, light ice cream, sorbet, frozen yogurt and novelties bring a smile to the face of all ages. Visit the Waterbury, VT Visitor Center and Cow over the Moon Theatre for a fun and educational factory tour!
