I remember creameries. As a youngster I'd help my uncle milk the cows and we'd carry the cans to the driveway and the creamery folks would come by and haul them off. Good times!
The building is impressive looking, but unfortunately the Creamery is long gone. Small dairy farms seldom exist any longer. Milk cows mostly reside in large factory farms that contract with major cheese producers and dairies.
I'm glad it is still standing -- reading your comments answered my question about what it is currently -- sad -- there aren't very many family farms of any kind any more.
Any good ice cream nearby?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately no locally produced ice cream. There is a restaurant in town that makes their own ice cream. Their flavor today is balsamic vinegar.
DeleteYum! Balsamic vinegar and ice cream is a wonderful combination!
