1Rich Farm Ice Cream ShopFarm shop · Oxford4.8 (2235 reviews)Rich Farm Ice Cream began on July 3, 1994, when David and Dawn Rich opened an ice cream shop on the family dairy farm in Oxford, Connecticut. The farm goes back five generations to Raffaele Ajello, who founded it on Great Hill in Seymour; his son Thomas moved it to 100 acres in Oxford in 1950, and grandsons Don and Dave Rich took over the dairy in the early seventies and continue to operate the farm today. All of the ice cream is made daily on the farm using an all natural mix with no corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, growth hormones, polysorbates or phosphates. The Connecticut Department of Agriculture honoured the family for running a Dairy Farm of Distinction for beauty and high quality milk, an honour that still stands. The Oxford shop is open seven days a week, with sister shops in Bristol and Middlefield and a franchise in Placentia, California.
