Julie and her team at Crooked Stick Pops, based in Easthampton, create craft ice pops—both classics and bold flavor experiments. Purists love Strawberry Lemonade and Watermelon, while the adventurous might try Blueberry Lavender, Green Monster, or Maple Pear. They use farm-fresh fruit and locally sourced ingredients wherever possible. We asked Julie to tell us what local means to her business.
