While the state’s new Ohio Buckeye Candy Trail has no Richland County location among the 30 shops statewide that can be explored for tasty treats, there is one in a adjacent county which is well known to Richland Countians.

Sweeties Chocolates/Grandpa’s Cheesebarn near Ashland has been included.

In a press release sent out across Ohio, state and local tourism officials shared: “The Ohio Buckeye Candy Trail is a great representation of the success that can be achieved when destinations and small businesses collaborate. We couldn’t be happier that [each site] is part of this effort to encourage visitors to savor Ohio’s most original dessert this fall: Buckeye candy.”

The Ohio Buckeye Candy Trail is part of TourismOhio’s fall campaign, and a map is available at this location online.
