The “Moomers Experience” exemplifies familyour story
Moomers Homemade Ice Cream was born from a love for ice cream and a simple idea that kept emerging in Nancy Plummer’s daily life. As a wife, mother of four, and first-grade teacher, Nancy found herself dreaming of creating a place where people could enjoy premium, homemade ice cream in a country setting. For three years, that idea bubbled up until it became clear: Moomers was meant to be. Living on their dairy farm provided the perfect natural location for their new venture, and so the vision took shape — a family-friendly spot that shared the world of agriculture, employed local young adults, and served ice cream crafted from only the finest ingredients.
In April of 1998, the doors to Moomers opened, and a new tradition was born.
Nestled on the family farm, Moomers quickly became a beloved destination for locals and tourists alike, offering more than just delicious ice cream. It became a place to enjoy a scoop while embracing the beauty of the surrounding landscape.
history
Over the years, Moomers Homemade Ice Cream has garnered numerous accolades, earning a reputation for its quality and creativity. Among the honors are recognition as America’s Best Scoop Shop by Good Morning America and Best Ice Cream in the Country by USA Today. These awards reflect Moomers’ dedication to crafting premium, homemade ice cream with love and care and made Cherries Moobilee famous.
Today, Moomers remains a family-owned business, and two of Nancy and Bob’s 4 children, Jon and Becky, are key players in daily operations. As second-generation owners and operators, Jon and Becky have embraced their parents’ legacy while continuing to grow the business. They’re proud to maintain the core values of passion, hard work, and a commitment to offering a premium product, all while expanding on Nancy and Bob’s original vision.
