The Dairy Duck

Hello! It’s Lisa, the mama on the side of the truck. ❤️🦆

I debated sharing this on our public page, but I truly believe this message is too important not to share. Even if just 100 of our followers share this with their littles, maybe we can make a difference in a child’s life down the road.

So, I’m asking you to take a minute and share this short video with your children. From teenagers all the way down to our tiniest ducklings, I believe every child can benefit from this message. Heck, share this post on your own page too!

Let’s teach our Dairy Ducklings that everyone is different, and that’s okay! Let’s teach them to be kind, understanding, patient, and most importantly, inclusive. ❤️

After all, one of the little ducklings on the side of our truck represents all of our friends who may need us to turn the music off when we pull up. Or maybe they won’t eat a single thing off our truck, but just want a rubber duckie and a chance to look at the pretty neon lights in the back.

And guess what? That’s okay too. They’re just as much a part of our Dairy Duck family as everyone else. 🩷

Please share this post. Let’s teach our kiddos that a little kindness and understanding can go a long way. We really can make a difference, one duckling at a time. 🦆

With love,

An autism mama. ❤️

This flock is taking a rest day after an early morning at the Mullet Parade. It was such a good time for us to all get together as we don’t get that opportunity often.

All scheduled routes are cancelled tonight except for a special birthday party stop. Tomorrow isn’t looking good either. We’ll be watching the weather. 😭😬

Thanks to our flock for sticking through the weather and early hours and to the town for still throwing the parade! It truly was a blast.

A little reminder from The Dairy Duck tonight. 🩷🦆

We LOVE what we do. We bring ice cream, smiles, music and a little bit of happiness to families all over our surrounding counties. Our girls work incredibly hard to make that happen.

Tonight, our youngest driver was spoken to in a way that was completely unacceptable, including being called names, and it happened in front of children.

Please remember there is a real person behind that window.

We drive miles and miles of routes every week, and unfortunately, sometimes a street or a house gets missed. We hate when it happens, but it is never intentional. We will ALWAYS do our best to make it right. What we will not tolerate is one of our girls being yelled at, insulted or personally disrespected over ice cream.

If you’re frustrated, talk to us. Message me. We will listen and we will do our best to fix it. But please don’t tear down a young woman who is simply out there working hard and doing her job.

We bring joy to so many people, and that’s exactly what we want to keep doing. There is absolutely no reason to be a jerk over ice cream. 🩷

So be kind to our girls. We’re very protective of our flock. 🦆🩷
