KitchenAid Tour

Tuesday, April 27, we took our Young at Heart group on a Day Trip to visit the KitchenAid factory and outlet store in Greenville, Ohio. After the tour we had a very nice lunch at the Montage in Downtown Greenville, OH. Unfortunately, we could not take photos inside the factory because of intellectual properties concerns. I fully understand this requirement because of the many years I spent working in development and around the factories of NCR. However, I was able to take photos in the lobby area where they had a very nice display of the KitchenAid products made in this factory.


This display below is a mixer they made to provide to each Fire House that had a part in the 9/11 attack in memory of those who were impacted by this terrorist act.
I goofed and was too wrapped up in making my Apple Dumpling to get a photo of the process! However, everyone enjoyed the experience of making these at the outlet store. After lunch, we returned to eat the finished product with ice cream. I can’t vouch for every apple dumpling made that morning but mine was excellent!

The Montage provided an excellent lunch in a very unique setting. I would highly recommend this version of a family run sandwich, soup and salad place. Their cookies were good, too; but I took mine home for later, rather than spoil my appetite for the apple dumpling to follow.
