Hidden down a seemingly forgotten country road, Buttonwood Farm is an exemplar of the country farm creamery experience. The green, rolling fields and white, wooden fences provide a perfect backdrop for the ice cream, which takes center stage. With a long line of top-notch, satiny-smooth flavors served by smiling faces at a gleaming counter, it is no surprise that locals have worked to keep this secret quiet.
| Overall Experience |  |
| Graham Cracker Ice Cream -
A tawny-colored, graham-flavored ice cream interspersed with large chunks of chocolate-covered graham crackers. This flavor is proof that unique can be delicious and not just plain weird. |
 |
| Blueberry Ice Cream -
No need to travel to Maine. Everything you’d ever want in a blueberry ice cream—perfect flavor, mix of cream and fruit, and creaminess. |
|
| Forbidden Silk Chocolate -
A stronger, darker chocolate than the typical standard. The pudding-smooth consistency elevated this forbidden flavor to the next level. |
|
| Vanilla Ice Cream -
Silky smooth and pillowy soft, this scoop’s texture was pleasing to the palate, but lacked a distinctive flavor. |
 |
| Hot Fudge Sauce -
Seemingly out of a can, this sauce quickly solidified on the ice cream like a store-bought Magic Shell. |
