Craving Ice Cream? Rich Farm Announces Opening Date

The renowned Oxford ice cream shop is opening soon.

Is it too early to start thinking about grabbing a cone or cup of ice cream from Rich Farm Ice Cream Shop? 

Despite the cold, we had a craving this week and went to visit only to see closed signs. We quickly remembered that the iconic ice cream shop closes for a few months in the winter. 

But we took to our trusty friend Facebook and found on the Rich Farm page that the business is opening for the season on Tuesday, March 12, at 11:30 a.m.  

Who will be the first in line? Check out our photos from last year's opening day of ice cream season in Oxford.

It was before they had a solar program, at the time it was the E-2 electrical course. I see America has a chance to build prosperity again if we will be forward-looking about our manufacturing and energy strategies.

Archie, Your wrong. Constitutions were written for a reason not to determine whether it's a living…Read More document or not. Politicians and or Anti-Americans only believe that the constitutions are a dead document. They are excuses to put forth an agenda. Without Constitutions this country would be chaos and we wouldn't have the freedoms we have today. Only in your eye's does the words not apply because you think government can prevent and do anything they want. It's the people that rule, NOT THE POLITICIANS!

That is looking at the Constitution as a dead piece of paper instead of a living document. Living…Read More Constitutions read as if they were written yesterday not over 250 years ago. Is the Constitution living or dead. When common sense and ordinary circumstances show that the words of the Constitution no longer apply then the document is dead. That is what occurs when weapons/arms have become so powerful and dangerous that having them available in the numbers you have in this country is tantamount to ultimate murder and chaos. This is definitely not what the Framers had in mind as shown by the words prefacing the 2nd amendment referring to a militia.
