Iowa may not be as well-known of a dairy land as our neighboring state, Wisconsin, but there are so many creameries and dairy farms around here that it’s pretty close! The Hawkeye State is also home to Le Mars, which is the Ice Cream Capital of the World. It goes without saying that here in Iowa, we take our ice cream pretty seriously. If you ever find yourself in the northern part of the state, be sure to stop by a tiny ice cream shop that’s earned a reputation for serving the best ice cream in Winnebago County.

One of the best little hidden gems in the Hawkeye State is here in Forest City. You’ve got to visit Scoopy Doos!
