Vanderwende Farm Creamery

06/14/2026

There was a time when dairy farms were a common sight across Delaware's countryside.

Today, just 12 working dairy farms remain.
We are honored to be one of them.

For our family, dairy farming is more than a livelihood. It is a commitment to the animals we care for, the land we steward, and the generations who came before us. It is early mornings, long days, and a passion for preserving a way of life that has shaped our family for generations.

As the number of family dairy farms continues to decline, we are grateful for the opportunity to continue farming and share a piece of that experience with our community.

We do not take that responsibility lightly.
To everyone who visits our farm, enjoys our ice cream, and supports local agriculture, thank you. Because of you, this tradition continues, and a piece of Delaware's agricultural heritage lives on for another generation.

❤️ The Vanderwende Family

Kids taking care of dairy cows is something you don’t see nearly as often anymore. In a world of screens and busy schedules, it’s refreshing to see young people learning responsibility, compassion, and hard work through farm life. These traditions may be becoming rare, but they’re still worth preserving. 🐄🌾❤️

Should we let our kids offer farm tours??

It’s farming season, so you will probably see this dude holding up traffic on 404 the next couple weeks but give him a brake because he’s cute 😂
