Chillin’ With Custard’s Last Stand in Long Lake
Manage episode 437751538 series 3582681
In this episode of ADK Talks, we have an intriguing conversation with Noel Jennings, a third-generation proprietor of one of the central Adirondack’s most beloved ice creameries, Custard’s Last Stand in Long Lake.
This iconic ice cream stand has served visitors and the community since 1958 (over 65 years). We talk to Noel about what it takes to keep a family business afloat for over six decades; the eternal appeal of soft serve ice cream; why spruce gum may be the next kombucha, macha, salted caramel, or lavender; his grandmother’s impressive pun-making talents; and what’s next for Custard’s Last Stand.
We also discuss swirling the perfect cone, ice climbing, scuba-diving in Adirondack lakes, mid-century modern architecture, and life in a northern town.
