Locals got together at the annual Strawberry Ice Cream Social at the River Valley Co-Op, a locally-owned grocery store.
From nearby vendors to different flavored ice cream, families enjoyed food produced by farmers in their neighborhood.
'So all the beef is coming locally, so we've got grass-fed beef burgers, we also have beyond-burgers for our non-meat folks, we've got homemade coleslaws and potato salads,' said Karen Mageorge-royal, store manager of River Valley Co-op.
Proceeds from Thursday's event will support a local non-profit. Each month, the grocery store gives back to an organization in need.
