The Howling Cow Dairy Education Center and Creamery is a popular destination, known for its excellent ice cream, including standout flavors like Caramel Mocha, cherry vanilla, and almond butter. The Fireside Brownie Sundae, with its warm brownie, whipped cream, and chocolate chips, is a rich favorite. Visitors enjoy the kid-friendly atmosphere and the chance to see the cows that produce the dairy.
The grounds are wonderful, featuring a back patio with rocking chairs and a large grassy area overlooking farmland. The setting offers a relaxing spot for families and visitors to enjoy the scenic views. While service can be busy, especially on weekends, the line usually moves quickly, and the staff handles crowds well. Howling Cow offers splits, shakes, and plenty of toppings to customize treats. Bottled drinks, t-shirts, and other dairy products are also available.
The ice cream is rich, creamy, and made with milk from cows right on the farm, giving it a fresh and farm-to-cone taste. The Dairy Education Center provides a unique look into how dairy products are made, and the Randleigh Dairy Museum offers interactive exhibits for all ages. Visitors can enjoy their cone while looking out at the dairy farm and watching the cows that make it all possible. The creamery is a solid sweet tooth option with fair prices, and it operates cashless, providing a relaxing atmosphere whether sitting inside or outside. It’s a great spot for families, students, or anyone who appreciates delicious ice cream with an educational farm-to-cone experience.
