Not all Sunday drives involve a destination. After all, it’s rather fun to drive aimlessly sometimes, simply soaking up the surrounding scenery. However, if you prefer to have a destination in mind while on a Sunday drive in Illinois, we have a perfect suggestion for you, and it involves sweet treats and adorable animals!
On your next Sunday drive, why not drive to Champaign in Central Illinois where you will find Prairie Fruits Farm and Creamery. This seasonal farm and goat-milk dairy was founded in 2005.

Stop by when the creamery is open and grab some organic fruit, goat cheese, fruit sorbetto, and artisanal goat milk gelato.

Try one of the goat-milk based gelato flavors like chocolate, vanilla, honey lavender, peach-ginger, or salted caramel swirl.
