To celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Harford County Public Library, the library has partnered with Broom’s Bloom Dairy to offer a limited-edition ice cream flavor.

Broom’s Bloom Dairy created Librarian Lemon Lavender in celebration of the milestone.

For every cup, pint or quart that’s sold, $1 will be added to the total and donated back to the library to support programs and services that benefit the community.

Earlier this year, during the second annual Taste of Harford event, Broom’s Bloom created three flavors that guests voted on to honor the library: Librarian Lemon Lavender, Dewey Decimal Double Dutch Chocolate and Periodical Peppermint.

HCPL Chief Executive Officer Mary Hastler described the partnership as a natural and meaningful choice.

“As a beloved local business with deep roots in our community, their support through the creation of the Librarian Lemon Lavender ice cream flavor not only celebrates our milestone but also reinforces the importance of local collaboration,” she said in a statement. “Broom’s Bloom consistently gives back to our community and every scoop helps fund library programs and services, making this partnership both sweet and impactful.”

Community members can find the flavor at Broom’s Bloom, Homelands Market, farmers markets and farm stands while supplies last.
