Free Cone Day isn’t just about making customers happy. It’s also supposed to spread awareness about the disappearing honeybee population. So the ice cream company is encouraging us to plant native, bee-friendly wildflowers in their towns. They’re not giving the seeds away themselves, but they’ll be asking customers to check out native plants using The Xerces Society website. And that’s a small price to pay for a free cone!
They let you choose your ice cream or sorbet and you can get it in a cup, sugar cone or cake cone. The free scoops are being offered from 4pm until 8pm today. And you can find your local shop with the Häagen-Dazs store locator.
