Marianne's Ice Cream
Hey Marianne's friends and family!This picture is the back side of the Marianne's Seacliff location. This drainage is supposed to be a county maintained 5 foot underground pipe. The runoff comes from the rail line, the highway and development going up State Park Drive on the other side of the highway. Because of decades of neglect and upstream development, it is now a 20 foot wide and 20 foot deep ditch.With the increase in rain and climate change as well as the development of the rail and trail we are very afraid that someone will get hurt or killed when it floods.We ask your support by answering the RTC survey at: tinyurl.com/helpseacliff and requesting the priority upgrade of this drainage culvert and line as part of developing the trail. See picture for sample answers.With your help, we can make a safe greenspace for everyone!Thank you for your support! ... See MoreSee Less

Tastes like summer! With peach on center stage and graham crackers bringing all the cobbler vibes. The touch of strawberry sauce livens it up. It's the perfect way to kick off the summer. Stop in to say thanks to long-time scooper, TJ, for inventing June's Sundae of the Month. ... See MoreSee Less

We've made it official, adding Otter 841 to our permanent menu. Named to honor Santa Cruz's famous furry ocean friend, this flavor hit the favorites list and stayed there once her little +1 joined the waters. Inspired by 841's spicy personality, we made this one with cinnamon caramel ice cream laced with snickerdoodle dough chunks (from Pacific Cookie Company Santa Cruz). It's sweet, local and has a bit of a bite! ... See MoreSee Less
