YOUNG’S JERSEY DAIRY
WOW - WOW - WOW 
They make all of there own ice cream right on the farm. Young’s ice cream is made from a 15% butterfat mix (pasteurized milk, cream, and sugar mixture). 15% butterfat ice cream is very rich in taste. It has a smooth, creamy texture and blends well with many flavors.
But this is just the tip of the ice cream cone when it comes to one of my favorite places to visit.
