What do the Vermont companies King Arthur Flour, Gardener's Supply, PC Construction, and Switchback Brewing have in common? They're all employee-owned businesses.

During Vermont's Employee Ownership Month, executive director of the Vermont Employee Ownership Center, Don Jamison, joins us in a conversation about what "employee-owned" means, the various forms employee ownership can take, and the benefits and challenges for companies that go the employee-owned route.

VEOC has Employee Ownership Month events scheduled this week.
