Cow to Cone - Entrepreneurship and Ice Cream - $75
January 5th, 10:30 AM - 2:30 PM EST
NC State has a long history of ice cream! It’s only natural for a university with a 329-acre dairy farm and a nationally recognized food science program to make ridiculously delicious ice cream. True to its tasty roots, Howling Cow® ice cream is still made on campus in the Feldmeier Dairy Processing Lab, part of the Department of Food, Bioprocessing, and Nutrition Science. The milk and cream come directly from over 300 NC State cows on our farm in Raleigh, North Carolina. This tour will take you directly to the farm where you will experience the first steps in the ice cream making process! At the Dairy Education Center and Creamery, you will learn about NC State's very own entrepreneurial venture, Howling Cow Ice Cream, and you will get to indulge in a cup or cone of the stuff that people have been known to stand in line for over 2 hours to buy at the local state fair! Includes ice cream and transportation.
Arts Entrepreneurship in Raleigh - $75
January 5th, 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM EST
Raleigh is known by locals as a great place to immerse yourself in arts-related ventures from art galleries to theater to dance to music and more! This exciting tour will take you to local ventures that support the creative communities around Raleigh where you can learn about the arts culture in Raleigh and experience how entrepreneurship and the arts merge together in our city. Includes lunch and transportation.
BBQ and Brews - $100
January 5th, 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM EST
North Carolina is a hot spot for both breweries and Bar-b-que, and it just so happens that these two make a perfect pair! This tour will not only allow you to engage in the very serious debate between eastern style or western style bar-b-que, but it will also allow you to learn about the history, art, and tradition of this tasty treat in NC! In addition, this tour will introduce you to the art of craft brewing which can be found in the many breweries throughout Raleigh. We suggest a small breakfast so that you have room to enjoy a sampling menu during these visits! Includes tasting menu and transportation.
