Honouring a Community Champion: Mary Swain & Our March Flavour

  After a break, we’re excited to bring back our tradition of honouring community champions with a special ice cream flavour!

For March, we’re thrilled to introduce Mary Mint Chocolate—a smooth, rich chocolate ice cream infused with fresh mint. It’s SO good, and even better, it’s inspired by an incredible person: Mary Swain. Mary Swain, has been making a difference in the lives of children and families…

The date is July 13th. It is a beautiful day at The Forks. We were hired by Inclusion System to provide all the attendees of the Disability Matters Vote with a free Chaeban Ice Cream. The turnout was beyond expectations for this very important event and cause. There were just three of us working that day, and we scooped and scooped and scooped. The line-up never went down for the three hours of the event. As the event was winding down, there was still a large lineup.  Then reality hit. We were going to run out of cups before we…

We continue our tradition to honour a real-life community hero namesake with each of our monthly feature flavours. Our last local hero was a famous one: Louis Riel, spokesperson, advocate, and leader in the fight for Metis rights. In honour of Louis, we pledged to donate $1 from every pint of Louis Lavender sold in August to Ma Mawi Wi Chi Itata Centre. For October, we couldn’t resist making our famous Peter Pumpkin. So the question was, how do we celebrate a community hero that goes with the season? Once we started our research, the answer became abundantly clear… Our…
