There’s a lot to love about summer in our region: warm sun, berry picking, swimming holes, and...ice cream. Lots and lots of ice cream.
On Vermont Edition's annual ice cream show, we hear from the owners of some of the best places in our region to get frozen treats: Colleen Palmer of Palmer Lane Maple in Jericho, Matt Bonoma of Vermont Cookie Love in North Ferrisburgh, and Karen Geriak from Cold Cow Creamery and Dairy Barn in Manchester. We also talk with Ted Castle, the founder of Rhino Foods, which supplies Ben & Jerry's with cookie dough and other mix-ins.
We asked listeners to tell us who makes their favorite frozen treats in Vermont, and we received dozens of answers! Here's some of what we heard:
