Listen on Purpose: From Collegiate Inspiration to Eco Innovation with Earth Brands’ Misha Vitels and Peter Frelinghuysen

Join Rachel Kraus and Caryl Stern as they examine the intersection of purpose and business. In this episode, they speak with Misha Vitels & Peter Frelinghuysen, the co-Founders of Earth Brands. Recent Williams College grads and varsity tennis teammates, the pair turned their dismay at the red plastic cups littering their campus into inspiration - and created a thriving company dedicated to making sustainable alternatives to everyday products, such as their compostable cups, cutlery and more.
