THE LEGEND OF MAD MARTHA’S
Many years ago, there was a little girl named Martha who lived on a family farm on the island of Martha’s Vineyard. For many years she sold her family’s delicious fresh cream from the farm throughout the island. On one extremely cold winter night, she forgot to store her bottles of cream in the barn, and the entire supply froze.
At first, she was sad, and a bit mad, but this quickly turned into genuine excitement when she had the idea of taking the frozen cream and turning it into ice cream. She spent months tinkering and mixing the freshest local ingredients with the tastiest flavors to create the most delicious ice cream.
Time went on and the local islanders had not seen her for a while and rumors spread that she had left the island. But on one hot summer day, she appeared from her farmhouse not with the family farm cream but with ice cream to share!
Word spread quickly and the islanders ran to try her ice cream and after one bite fell madly in love with Martha’s creations. And that is how Mad Martha’s Ice Cream started!
ICE CREAM FOR EVERYONE!
Mad Martha’s is proud to be an official sponsor of the 81st annual Martha’s Vineyard fishing derby!🐟🎣🍦
Our Edgartown location is just a short walk away from the weigh in station by the harbor — come join us for late night sweet treats after a long day of fishing!
The 2026 derby begins on September 13th— but we’ll be here scooping locally made ice cream on island all month long!
