The Old Rock Creek Creamery

This Blog is about an old Creamery in Rock Creek, Minnesota USA. This property was acquired in Dec of 2016. Property was built in 1920. A brief history of the property is that it was originally built and operated as a local cooperative. It was owned for awhile by Land O Lakes, in the mid 20th century. It was purchased in 1969 by a local couple who raised four children there and converted it into a manufacturing facility. Many additions have been done over the years and then the property sat idle for about a half decade. Follow this blog to watch this old building and grounds get cleaned up and preserved. This project will be one of many years. There is no plan at this point other than to clean up and repair what a limited budget will allow for. The heat and water have been turned off for a number of years. My name is Tony Samuel and I am the latest owner. I hope that you find this blog to be entertaining and in some ways it can add value to your life as I enter into this endeavor. Please comment and share your thoughts and ideas as I encounter the unforeseen challenges that the future holds. I will post pictures and videos with updates. Let me know what you want to see and me to do. I am also an amateur at this blogging as well, so I am open to ideas, comments and suggestions here also. Thanks and lets start this journey. Here are some photos taken of the building a couple years before I purchased it.

These are some photos of the inside.
