Guernsey Girl Creamery is the kind of place you stumble across once and then tell everyone you know about. It's a small family dairy farm on Bridges Dairy Road near Polkville, raising Golden Guernsey cows and turning their Grade A milk into some of the best dairy products you're going to find anywhere in this area.
The farm stand runs on an honor system. You grab what you want from the refrigerators and freezers under the shed, weigh your produce if needed, and pay via Venmo or leave exact change in the jar. It's an old school setup and it works. The selection changes daily but you'll typically find fresh cheese curds, butter, yogurt, milk, eggs, baked goods, honey, canned goods, and fresh produce. Everything is made or grown right here.
The ice cream is the thing that gets people talking and it earns it. Made from their own cows' milk, flavors like peanut butter chocolate, cheesecake, and mint are all excellent. You can grab a scoop and sit at the picnic tables while the kids watch the calves in the pasture, which is a pretty hard experience to beat on a weekend afternoon.
This is local agriculture at its best. A small operation doing things right and worth every visit. read more
