Scores of ice cream lovers across the country have consumed the delicious frozen treats made by Vermont-based Ben & Jerry’s. But did you know that the chewy fudge brownies in Ben & Jerry’s flavors such as Chocolate Fudge Brownie and Half Baked come from a local business?
The team at Advocate Brokerage would like to share with you a Ben & Jerry’s advertisement featuring a noteworthy organization that we enthusiastically support: the Greyston Bakery.

Based in Yonkers, Greyston Bakery has been infusing Ben & Jerry’s ice cream with delectable baked treats since 1990, and currently delivers 25,000 pounds of brownies each day to add something special to the popular ice cream.
The Bakery is a key component of The Greyston Foundation, a sustainable organization that works to solve the problems of urban communities by providing employment, housing, and healthcare to those in need. All of Greyston Bakery’s profits go directly to The Greyston Foundation and its programs.
So, the next time you dig into a bowl of Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Fudge Brownie or Half Baked, know that you are supporting a great local cause.
Advocate Brokerage is proud to support The Greyston Foundation in its work to better the communities that we and our customers call home. If you would like to help us support Greyston’s admirable work, please visit their website and learn about how you can volunteer your time or donate money to help make our community one sweet place to live.
