DAUPHIN COUNTY, Pa (WHP) — Looking for a delicious way to beat the heat this summer?
Pennsylvanians will soon be able to do just that by taking a visit to one of the 42 creameries across the Commonwealth that make up the 2023 'Scooped: An Ice Cream Trail."
The sixth annual PA Ice Cream Trail offers a yummy way to support Pennsylvania's more than 5,200 dairy farms and the small businesses that source from them, according to officials.
This year trail-goers can plan their adventures and learn about participating creameries virtually.
The most dedicated dairy lovers can even earn a commemorative stainless-steel ice cream scooper by accruing 600 points on their digital passport. Each ice cream shop check-in is worth 100 points.
Officials say it's as simple as stopping in at six shops, making a purchase, and receiving a four-digit code to “check-in” and accrue your points this summer.
“Nothing is sweeter than a cold scoop of Pennsylvania ice cream on a hot summer day,” Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding said. “It’s even sweeter to know you’re supporting a Pennsylvania farm family and feeding the industry that sweetens our lives and feeds our economy every day.
Several creameries in Central PA are participating. To find a full list of the 42 participating creameries, click here.
