🍦🐵 A LITTLE SUNDAY UPDATE! 🐵🍦

With all of your amazing support over the last several days, we've decided to make a change to our Sunday plans.

Instead of being closed all day on Sunday, May 31st, The Frosty Monkey will be OPEN from approximately 4:00 PM until 8:00 PM!

We had originally planned to spend the entire day away, but thanks to the overwhelming support from our customers, we wanted to make sure everyone had a chance to stop by and enjoy a little Monkey Time before the weekend comes to an end.

This marks our 6th year serving Independence and Grayson County, and we truly couldn't have made it this far without your support. Every ice cream, milkshake, sundae, and sweet treat you purchase helps keep a small local business going and allows us to continue serving this community year after year.

So after church, family gatherings, cookouts, ball games, or whatever your Sunday brings, come see us for your favorite ice cream, milkshakes, sundaes, banana splits, and sweet treats.

🍦 Sunday, May 31st🕓 Open 4:00 PM – 8:00 PM📍 305 E Main Street, Independence, VA

Thank you for helping make the past 5 years possible.

Everybody deserves a little Monkey Time. 🐵❤️

❤️ THIS SUNDAY THE 31ST ❤️

The Frosty Monkey will be CLOSED at the store
as we head out for one of the most important weekends of our year.

For the 5th year in a row, we’ve been blessed to spend time serving alongside an amazing church family and hundreds of incredible kids who welcome us back every year with open arms.

Moments like this remind us that this business has always been about more than food and ice cream.
It’s about community, memories, faith, and bringing joy to people wherever we go.

We’re thankful beyond words for everyone who supports us here at home while we continue sharing what we love with others across the region.

We’ll see y’all when we get back home to the mountains. ❤️🍦
