We will tour the Randleigh Dairy Heritage Museum at the NC State Dairy Farm, and cap off our tour with Howling Cow ice cream. The museum is an agritourism experience that will allow you to learn how milk gets from the farm to the table. It also honors the Kenan family, whose generous support helped create this educational destination. The Jersey cows at the farm are descended from William Rand Kenan’s original stock. The interactive museum will show you how a typical North Carolina dairy farm operates. Learn how NC State raises cows that produce milk and yummy Howling Cow ice cream!
