In honor of the Statue of Liberty’s 125th anniversary, Turkey Hill Dairy has created a Limited Edition Lady Liberty Mint Premium Ice Cream flavor, on sale throughout the year wherever Turkey Hill ice cream is sold. We’re also posting a different Lady Liberty fact every day for 125 days on our Twitter feed. Today’s featured fact is:
Following a fundraiser to raise money to build Lady Liberty’s pedestal, “The World” newspaper printed the name of every contributor, no matter how small the amount.
Today’s fan photo is an example of a clever way to reuse an empty Turkey Hill ice cream container. It was sent to us by Delores K., who noted that she loves Turkey Hill ice cream, “and so do our feathered friends.”

If you’ve got a technical question about the ice cream making process or some other inquiry about the nuances of America’s favorite treat, chances are Ernie has the answer. He might not be able to answer all questions, but he’ll try his best and some may be featured on the Ice Cream Journal.
nice photo!!
all of the stories from the “journal” are great–but the ice creams are better !!!!
Wonderful idea for a bird feeder! Very creative.
I just went to our local A&P. Turkey Hill ice cream was on my list. There was virtually no Turkey Hill in the freezer case.
When I protested to the manager, he told me that they had sold
out all their Turkey Hill. So I can only assume that Turkey Hill
is the most popular ice cream in the store.
how nice that EVERYONE was recognized–no matter how big or small the contribution…that’s just how it should be!
Now that’s green!
THIS IS GREAT IDEA.
THE ICE IS EVEN BETTER
must of taken up the entire newspaper
Delores K. that was a lovely picture that you sent in. You are very creative and show much initiative in recycling your Turkey Hill ice cream containers. Also wanted to mention you also like one of my favorite flavors!!!
Great idea for recycling! I am sure that you finished the ice cream and didn’t share it with the birds!
Have you tried the Lady Liberty Mint Premium ice cream yet? I have and it is delicious! I hope that TH keeps it as a regular flavor and not just a featured flavor.
were the birdies hoping for some cookies ‘n cream? the third bird, in particular, looks pensive…
Clever idea – love the photo.
visited the Statue of Liberty 2 times, but you are giving me more info than I received then. Love the photo of bird house.
I remember the World-Telegram which was the merged paper. It then merged with The Sun and later with the Herald-Tribune thus 5 old NY papers became one. That later folded. The World’s office might still be standing near City Hall. If memory is correct just Southeast of City Hall Park. I also think its editor (can be wrong since NY at that time had many papers) was Joseph Pulitzer thus that could be why all donors were listed and not Randolf Hearst of the American. This I learnt from reading since I am not that old.
Eat more Turkey Hill Lady Liberty Mint Ice Cream!
How cute is that!
Now that’s what I call recycling!
Lucky Lady Liberty, long may she stand!
How nice that everyone was recognized, showing every gift was important, no matter the amount! I love the bird house idea!! What a great way to recycle!!
My students and I love Lady Liberty facts. I love the bird house idea too!
It is good to learn that all contributors to the fundraiser for Lady Liberty’s pedestal were recognized. The bird feeder is a cute idea for an empty Turkey Hill Ice Cream carton.
I guess you fooled those birds. Thought they were getting delicious ice cream to cool down!
Such a cute photo, and a great “re-use” idea.
I am going to finish my Turkey Hill and make one too!
I’m a trash reducer, so every time I see how to reuse something instead of throwing it away, I think it is great and this bird feeder is just what I need to excite people to eat their turkey hill and reuse the container, thanks Delores
Very creative
That’s a really great bird feeder! I’d like to know how Delores put that together. I started reusing all my TH containers after last year’s TH blog posting with all the brainy recycling tips from the world’s best blogging community!
Today I had Fudge Ripple(Turkey Hill, of course!)with cantalope. It was delicious!!
love lady liberty ice cream but its hard to get here. last week bought the last one
Didn’t know birds ate ice cream
love these facts
Lady Liberty Mint is the best
Great recycling tip!!
What an awesome site!!!
It is wonderful that everyone’s contribution was listed,as everything makes a difference. The bird feeder is creative and a great way to reuse something- I will have to share that idea with one of my co-workers, as the children love to use boxes of all kinds for projects!
Those must be the happiest birds in the neighborhood. Very cute.
Cute idea.
Cute idea. The birds are looking for their Turkey Hill!!!
Great to know that all contributors were recognized. I am sure there are many other uses for the empty Turkey Hill containers. Children could use them as building blocks. They do stack perfectly.
I like to know the number of names that newspaper therefore had to print; because nowadays a newspaper couldn’t possibly print a very large number ( most likely the case) of names.
Bet those birdies were happy!
do birds like ice cream?
cute picture!
If Lady Liberty would have tasted Turkey Hill ice cream, she would be holding a carton of it and a spoon instead of the torch!
Way to go sis! Ice cream and birds. Your two favorite things!!!
Way to go sis! Only you and Ice cream and your birds!!
I love the photo.
Thanks for another Lady Liberty interesting fact….and Thank-you for giving me yet another way to recycle, and another excuse to buy some more Turkey Hill ice-cream.
ice cream month is almost over and i still didn’t win
but my fridge is always stocked with T.H. ice cream so i’m not really a loser!
GREAT IDEA AND WHAT A CUTE PICTURE. I FEED THE BIRDS ALSO BUT NEVER THOUGHT OF DOING THAT.
HAVE A NICE WEEKEND EVERYONE.
I wouldn’t say your ice cream is for the birds!
Love the birds and the ice cream!
Cute idea for the bird feeder. Lady Liberty, we are soooo proud of you.
Hi everyone, I love the picture, but I was thinking if I made a bird huse…I can’t put it outside..since all the aminals would eat the foods not the bird. I could make it and set it inside the house. I would have to put the turkey hill ice cream,eat the ice cream then make the bird house.
Good idea,i hope they ate the ice cream first,because i wouldn’t want to spoil the birds.
