Production Disruption Alert

9/4/2026 - Due to a recent production disruption at Cornell Dairy, some residential dining locations will temporarily offer ice cream from an alternate supplier while Cornell Dairy rebuilds inventory. We appreciate your patience and look forward to returning to a full selection of Cornell Dairy flavors in the coming weeks.
