Back in 1969, Stew Leonard opened a store for his family’s farm, Clover Farms Dairy. In the span of just a few decades, it’s grown into a legendary chain of dairy stores with six locations in Connecticut and New York.

Ripley's Believe It or Not named Stew Leonard's "The World's Largest Dairy." It's also been named to Fortune Magazine's list of the best companies to work for.

The dairy megastore isn't just known for its cheese; the produce section here is legendary. The stores make an effort to buy locally-produced foods whenever possible.
