State terminates Plymouth cheese makers’ lease

A small cheesemaking business at the Calvin Coolidge Historic Site has been told by the state to leave. The decision will have an impact on two local companies that employ about 20 people. The companies’ owners and local legislators are protesting the decision, but the state says it will close the cheese factory for now.
