29. Stonyfield’s values and mission rest on strong emotional foundations of love,
hope and optimism – we embrace and promote them in all that we do.
We “stir it up”, because nothing is impossible
We are tenacious in constantly questioning the status quo. We believe every person can make
a difference and we respect the power of asking “Why not?”
We win together
We believe that all of our stakeholders – our planet, farmers, cows, employees, customers,
consumers, shareholders and future generations – can and should win. Each of us is
accountable to everyone else because we can only achieve success together, and we win
when everyone else does too.
We are uncompromising in our pursuit of excellence
We believe in continuously perfecting everything we touch - our products, our processes and
our performance
We educate our selves and our stakeholders
We constantly seek greater knowledge and seek to model and champion healthy lifestyles and
sustainability
We walk our talk
We believe our actions speak volumes and are committed to straightforward, honest
communication among ourselves and with our stakeholders, particularly our consumers.
