At Perrydell your group is invited to pet and bottle feed newborn calves, interact with cows and chickens and enjoy delicious homemade dairy treats in the country store.

Get a first-hand look at the milking process, help bottle feed a calf, and enjoy a rich, creamy glass of Perrydell's chocolate milk or a cone of their hand-dipped, homemade ice cream. Owner, Tom Perry jokes that "the only way to get milk fresher is to buy your own cow." All this and more await your group during a down-on-the-farm visit to Perrydell Farm Dairy.
