Community Initiative
Help Us Build The Next Parlor
We have a vision for Glacier Ice Cream: a stunning, standalone 1930s-inspired vintage parlor that serves as a community anchor in Fort Collins.
To turn this architectural dream into reality, we are launching an internal crowd-funding campaign to raise the $500,000 to $1,000,000 required to secure the building, build out the kitchen, and install custom vintage fixtures.
