The ice cream maker said more than a million scoops will be given away.
Ben & Jerry’s, Burlington, Vt., said it will host its annual Free Cone Day on April 9. More than a million scoops of ice cream will be given away.
The idea of handing out free ice cream started back in 1979, when co-founders Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield opened the doors of their renovated gas station and threw a party for the citizens of Burlington. The idea turned into an annual event.
