The Three Twins Treat!
September 11th, 2005
There’s nothing like enjoy yummy, organic, home-made ice cream to celebrate another business gone green!
When Neal Gottlieb decided to open his business, Three Twins Ice Cream, in San Rafael, CA, he was determined to make it green. And Mike and I were determined to see it in action. Not only was the ice cream phenomenal, but the store was a friendly, kid-centered, mecca of fun and sustainable practices.
This compost, recycling bin, and itty bitty trash bin is all that’s needed to keep Three Twins in good working order.
Among the eco-friendly runnings of the shop are PLA (plastic from corn) and Spudware (starch utensils), as well as Vegan options and reused metal utensils.
Be sure to visit Neal and tell him that Vestal sent ya!

This really is the perfect ice cream store for kids, too: A cool, hip place for teens to hang out (not too expensive), crayons and coloring books for families with wee ones and even “baby sized” ice cream servings. i love it!

If you go to Three Twins, be sure to try the Mint ice cream…and I hear the watermelon sorbet’s good too! Oh, and ask to see the -37F deep freezer!
