The warm Michigan summer weather continues through September, which means the celebration of National Dairy Month in June can continue all summer long. While a lot of dairy products including cheese, butter, and milk are great, our one true love is ice cream. Ice cream is perfect for a hot summer day—or really any day—and we’ve got the scoop on some of the best places in Southwest Michigan. We dairy you to try them all:
