History
Crystal Spring Dairy was purchased by Martin and Nora Donnelly in November 1920. The dairy farm grew and expanded over the years. In 1953, their daughters Rita and Mary went to a trade show and saw the unique machine that made the Ice Cream that we still make today. Their son, Francis, turned the warming hut that had been used on the ski hill just down the road into the stand we have today. We opened in August of 1953 and haven't missed a season since. In the early years the stand operated 6 days and were closed on Mondays. It opened July 4th and closed before Labor Day. Family members worked the stand and in the 1960's, family friends were hired to help out. Peter (Francis' oldest son) re-joined the dairy in 1968 and is still operating the stand today. In 1969 we started opening 7 days a week and a year later pushed our opening date up to Memorial Day, and stayed open thru Labor Day. Over the years, the flavor offerings were expanded and hours have been extended.
