In the South folks
most often made ice cream in late June and the month of July because that was
the fruit picking season when the fruit would be sweet—peaches
raspberries, cherries (perhaps my favorite summer fruit), strawberries, or
whatever local fruit grew in abundance where you lived. The in season fruit
would be picked on say a Saturday and the ice cream made for the Sunday the
evening dessert following a long hot church service and dinner on the
grounds. As the photo above shows entrepreneurs, particularly women, made additional money selling ice cream in urban centers.
