🎉🎊🎉 Hope y’all are ready to celebrate with us today and tomorrow at the 76th Annual St. Joseph’s Festival in Wapakoneta, OH! We have some extra special sweet treats on the menu! 🔻

Some things are quintessentially timeless…like freedom, faith, family, and a scoop of classic Neopolitan ice cream! 🍓🍫🍦 In honor of America’s 250th birthday, we’re serving up our patriotic twist on an old favorite - 🇺🇸✨ The Founding Fathers ✨🇺🇸 - three classic flavors in one scoop, because just like our nation, they’re even better together!

If sweet and frosty sips are more your style, raise a float to 250 years! 🥤 We’re pouring two new fountain fizzes!
🫐 The Betsy Ross Blue Raspberry Float is stitched together with a bold mixed berry flavor worthy of it’s own stars 🌟
🍓 The Star-Spangled Strawberry Float is bursting with spectacular berry goodness that’s red, refreshing, and ready to celebrate!

🎂❤️🤍💙🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🇺🇸🎂🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🎂

America has long been known as the land of opportunity; a land where hard work, family traditions, and small businesses can flourish. We’re incredibly grateful for the freedom and opportunity to make and share a little vintage Americana through Grandma Jane’s family recipes for homemade ice cream, and even more grateful that you, our loyal customers, have the freedom and opportunity to enjoy it!

Thank you for supporting our small business - a homegrown operation that reflects the value of hard work and integrity, and honors a family legacy, much like that of this country’s forefathers. Your patronage means more to us than you’ll ever know, and every scoop served, every shake handspun, allows us to continue sharing a little bit of love and patriotism with you! ❤️

🦅 CHEERS to ✨250✨ years of freedom, faith, family, friendship, and community - and to nearly 30 years of life, liberty, and the pursuit of ice cream! 🇺🇸

Wishing everyone a safe and Happy 4th of July! 🎂
Galen, Elaine, Lynelle, & Casey

Ya’ll…we are absolutely speechless about Sunday’s Farm Flavor & Summer Sweets event! We weren’t quite sure what to expect, but suffice it to say, we were not disappointed! Your patronage and support mean more to us and our small businesses than words can adequately say! Not even a little thunderstorm could keep you away! This might just become an annual thing! 🤗

We are still taking online orders for Father’s Day. Several of our specialty flavors have been restocked. ***PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE use our website to reserve your half gallons, as the website automatically updates our inventory and reduces confusion and overselling of stock. If you text or message Elaine instead of ordering online, some flavors of half gallons may not be guaranteed!***

https://form.jotform.com/242695472215157

Pick-up hours for Father’s Day orders are as follows:
Wednesday, June 17th from 10:00am - 7:00pm
or
Saturday, June 20th from 9:00am - 12:00noon

If these dates & timeframes do not work for you, please message Elaine to make alternate arrangements; note that we have an event scheduled for this Friday.

Thanks again to all of our amazing customers! We love you and your love for all things frosty and sweet! ❤️
