Evan Posted June 14, 2013 Share #1 Posted June 14, 2013 Today on our Venture East trip we spent some time at Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream Factory in Vermont. It is an amazing facility as some of these pictures might show. Plus, their ice cream is as good as it gets. In case your are wondering, 2 of the pictures are from their "flavour graveyard" which is a real hoot. Another shows the back of the factory where their huge tanks for milk and cream and sugar are located. There is also a huge gift shop and they give tours of their factory. It is such a large and busy place that they have three large parking areas, one for buses that bring ice cream lovers to spend time there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miles Posted June 14, 2013 Share #6 Posted June 14, 2013 Evan, when I lived in Vermont, I used to go to the Ben & Jerry's factory in Waterbury about every 2 months. It is a hoot. Makes for a great destination for a future Venture Northeast gathering...hint, hint, hint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
