The simple joy of sitting on the back porch, enjoying locally made ice cream, on a beautiful sum-mer’s afternoon… What can top that? Um, a little chocolate sauce maybe?
In honor of Hearthstone’s First Lady, Cremora Rogers, Hearthstone will be serving up scoops of delicious, locally made, ice cream (we have found it to be our duty to try local products, some-times three or four times… just to make sure) at something we call our “Cream Aura” Old Fashion Ice Cream Social.
It will all be very informal. We will be sitting at table and chairs in the backyard of the museum - and on the veranda steps too of course - under the shade of the trees that line the riverbank. The ice cream will be available by the scoop in bowls (the ice cream cone wasn’t invented until 1904!). The event is free but we will be charging a modest amount for the ice cream as a fund-raiser (but not the chocolate sauce, that’s on us - Hershey’s Cocoa is very Victorian, starting in 1896). There may even be a croquet match or two breaking out.
