Welcome!
A visit to the factory is a great activity for all ages, whether you have time to take the factory tour or only enough to stretch your legs, pick up a milkshake, and get back on the road. During the warmer months, enjoy our picnic and playground areas or simply pull up an Adirondack chair and take in a view of the Worcester Mountain range. Cap off your visit with a walk through the Flavor Graveyard where you can pay your respects to our dearly de-pinted flavors.
Tours
Our 30-minute guided tour offers a glimpse into our company history, a peek into our manufacturing process, a Q&A session in our Flavoroom, and of course a sample of one of our euphoric flavors (regardless of whether or not we are manufacturing ice cream on the day of your visit!). Looking to take your visit to the next level? Check out our Flavor Fanatic Experience!
Tours are offered 7 days a week, 362 days a year and each have capacity for 40 people, first come first served. We’re open every day except Thanksgiving Day, Christmas, and New Years Day. The last tour of the day departs one hour prior to closing.
