We’d like to officially welcome a new local artisan to Urban Acres – Pearl Brand Artisanal Ice Cream!
If you came to our Slow Food $5 Challenge Lunch, then you most likely tried this amazing ice cream, handmade by Penelope Ryholt. In all her ice cream, Penelope uses Texas Daily Harvest milk – the local, organic, non-homogenized, low-pasteurized milk we sell at Urban Acres. Penelope even got to visit Texas Daily Harvest to see the farm and meet the farmers for herself!

You can wipe the drool off your chin now.
Pearl Brand Ice Creams are lovingly handcrafted in Dallas, TX in small batches with fresh ingredients. They proudly use locally produced organic milk and cream from Texas Daily Harvest for the richest, purest flavor and never use artificial colors, flavors or fillers.
