Fair Oaks Dairy Adventure

With the help from a Groupon, we decided to venture to Fair Oaks Dairy Adventure. It's about 1 hr. 45 minutes from our house in Bristol, so it is a bit of a drive. Of course, it's closer for those of you in South Bend. Fair Oaks Dairy Adventures is a place to connect with the dairy process. It's easily accessible to Chicago, Indianapolis, and South Bend. My sister had been a couple of times, so we heard a few details about it in the last several years.

Finding Nature in a Candy Factory

We recently stopped at Albanese Candy Factory and Outlet Store on our way back home from Fair Oaks Farm. I (who me?) was talking to a lady at the farm who mentioned a candy factory, so I thought we should check it out. It is located a short drive off of I-65 near Merrillville, Indiana. There is loads of other shopping in the area (too much for me!). They only source their food products from the US and Canada, which is good to hear in many regards.
