You can learn more about the 300 year old village on their website. They even have a virtual tour of the historic village full of pictures and information. If you visit Yellow Springs on your own, or take a tour you can see some remains on the hillside of the hospital that George Washington commissioned to be built for the military during the American Revolution.

It’s been recorded that Yellow Springs was also home to the Chester Springs Soldiers’ Orphans School for children of the Civil War Soldiers.

Later, it was headquarters for a film studio, that created over 400 films, including The Blob.

The Historic Yellow Springs is having their 34th Annual Mem”BREW”ship Party on March 29th, 2008.

About a week ago, Dale, friend of mine from Washington State, asked Sarah, from West Virginia, and I to complete an assignment …

What’s your favorite place to get a Milkshake?

“Yes!“, I thought, I’ve just been given permission to go devour a milkshake! “Jump!”
“AChrome! You have to come with me this weekend to Milky Way Farms in Chester Springs to get a milkshake!”
“Why?” AChrome, my 21-year old daughter asked, rolling her eyes as if to say, “What is my Mom thinking now?”
“I have to write a blog about my favorite place to get a milkshake; I need a model”. That’s all I needed to say. Anytime she can pose for a picture, she’s there!

We headed out on a dreary, rainy Saturday for the search for the perfect milkshake. As we pulled into The Creamery at Milky Way Farms, I was impressed they had quite a few vehicles in the parking lot on such a miserable day. We parked and AChrome, Little One (4), and Niece (8) hopped out of the car. There were people inside but wait, they aren’t eating ice cream or sipping Milkshakes? Presents? Toys? Cake? A private birthday party?

No homemade ice cream made with the milk from their own Dairy Cows for us! I was so proud I checked the website before taking off on this venture… but I didn’t call. They haven’t updated the website that says at the top, “Now Open – Fall Schedule”. I guess that ended in the Fall.

Have you ever broken the news to a 4 & 8 yr old that your plan for a scrumptious snack wasn’t going to work? It’s not fun. So PLAN B – by location – Red Robin!

I wish I could just answer a question like “Where is your favorite place to get a milkshake?” with a simple answer, “Milky Way Farms in Chester Springs, PA”. I have to make it difficult, “I’ll let you know,” and author a blog about milkshakes! So, Dale, aka Charlie – I didn’t get a milkshake from my favorite place, but thanks for the excuse to indulge none the less!
