Bluffton Dari Freeze highlighted on Ohio Ice Cream Trail
Ohio.org's Ice Cream Trail now features a hometown favorite, the Bluffton Dari Freeze.
The map is part of "Ohio. Find it here" promotions. There are 20 ice cream shops listed. The Dari Freeze description reads:
"Bluffton The Dari Freeze has been a small town staple in the village of Bluffton for nearly 70 years. This small corner shop serves up big flavor.

That means you can share your ice cream dreams with friends and family nearly anywhere you wander in Ohio. But don’t leave it to chance. Here’s the A to Z list of scoop shops on the Ohio Ice Cream Trail, where frozen confection paradise is yours for the tasting!"
