Tulmeadow Ice Cream…
Check our current Flavors Here!
In August of 1994, we began making ice cream at the farm. Our goal was to make really great ice cream, so that our customers would want to come back again and again. The readers of Hartford Magazine voted Tulmeadow Farm “Best Ice Cream” of 2010 and again in their recent 2011 Readers Poll. We scoop our ice cream at the Farm Store, mid-April through October 30th. Our hours vary a bit, but we usually open at noon and close at 9:30pm throughout the summer, closing at 9:00pm, then 8:00pm in the fall. The store closes earlier as the season wanes. During September and October, we open by 1:30pm during the week. Don’t be afraid to call ahead to check our store hours, at 860-658-1430, particularly if you are coming from a distance.
We make over 50 different flavors of very rich 16% butterfat gourmet ice cream. Our top selling flavor is Red Raspberry with Chocolate Chips.
We produce large quantities of our ice cream in quarts and pints, which are sold in our Farm Store, while also supplying some local stores with quarts of ice cream for retail sale.
