Beloit

Beckman Mill County Park

In my younger days, when we lived on a farm, I always enjoyed the chance to go with a truckload of grain to the mill in town.  That mill ran on electricity. Earlier mills built by the first European settlers ran on water power and one of those mills has been restored and is open for visitors in a Rock County park just west of Beloit.

First stop is the Creamery, which serves as the Visitors Center and souvenir store.
