Happy Cow hopes to collect more than 600 turkeys for Thanksgiving

The local source article “Happy Cow hopes to collect more than 600 turkeys for Thanksgiving,” dated November 17, 2025, reports Happy Cow Ice Cream Shop in Laconia kept its Union Avenue shop open to collect and freeze donated turkeys for St. Vincent de Paul Society, the Laconia Daily Sun reported on November 17, 2025. Owner Calise Houle hoped to exceed the previous year’s 600 turkeys. Collection was scheduled through November 20, with a planned transfer to volunteers assembling about 800 Thanksgiving ingredient baskets for Lakes Region families. From Laconia, our service extends to Belmont, Gilford and Alton; Wolfeboro and Tuftonboro; and Meredith, Center Harbor and Moultonborough. Beyond Winnipesaukee, coverage includes Gilmanton and Barnstead, the Tilton,Northfield,Franklin area, Sanbornton and New Hampton, and Ashland, Holderness and Plymouth. We also serve Bristol, Bridgewater, Alexandria and Hebron around Newfound Lake, as well as Hill, Danbury and Andover to the west and Sandwich, Tamworth, Ossipee, Effingham and Freedom to the northeast

The November 17, 2025 account described a collection point and a later delivery to the pantry, with freezer space joining those two stages. Houle aimed to exceed the 600 birds collected the previous year, with donations scheduled to accumulate until November 20.

A temporary mobile refrigeration trailer could support a similar drive when the collection site’s existing freezers cannot hold the stock awaiting transfer. Plan for peak accumulation before volunteers load the final delivery, including access for donated food arriving at different times.
