Worth the trip as Cows Creamery is more than just ice cream. Tour takes about 30 minutes but it is worth it -- and you get a sample at the end of the tour.

This was a fun tour for several reasons. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable about the history of COWS Creamery and of the whole ice cream and cheese making processes. She also gave a detailed explanation of the process of designing and making COWS' famous T shirts. The process is interesting in that the designs are developed by a committee... More

This is sort of a fun time waster. We didn't actually get to see the ice cream being made...but the tour guide was enthusiastic and we had fun. It's all a bit silly, so you just have to make up your mind to have fun with it. Plus the ice cream at the end was tasty. This isn't a must... More

We really like the "Mowie Cowie" the best and there was a "Mooey Goey" that was also good. We had to go back 3 days in a row for our desert fixes. You can taste free samples too. We just went to the dairy bar and didn't take the tour though.

They weren't making ice cream the day we were there. It appeared to be more of a t shirt factory. The staff was enthusiastically pushy - not the right tactic for me. OK ice cream. I preferred the ADL ice cream.

Great, original T shirts. Fresh made cones are good. Ice cream is a bit watery and mediocre. Very savvy marketing.
