Häagen-Dazs Free Cone Day Is On Tuesday, May 9, 2017

Everyone mark your calendars! Free dessert is on the way! Häagen-Dazs wants to cure your ice cream cravings this Tuesday, May 9th, 2017 by sharing a free scoop of ice cream or sorbet with visitors between 4pm-8pm at all participating locations.

This year though, Häagen-Dazs doesn’t just want to make it about the ice cream. They want to continue to raise awareness on the alarming decline in our world’s bee population.

Häagen-Dazs wants everyone to pay it forward by planting wildflowers native to their region. A third of our world’s crops are dependent on bees, and so are Häagen-Dazs’ flavors. So no bees = no almonds in the Rocky Road, no coconut in the Toasted Coconut Caramel, no raspberries in the Raspberry sorbet.

Tragic, right?

So if we want to continue having ice cream in the future — not just from Häagen-Dazs —  then we’ve all got to do our part in sustaining a world where our pollinators can thrive.
