The Peppermint Stick Candy Store is expanding

The Peppermint Stick Candy Store is expanding! We've acquired the space next door, formerly occupied by the dentist, and are transforming it into a soda fountain and ice cream parlor.

To celebrate this sweet expansion, we want to spread a message of kindness with a mural created by DJ Barry, founder of World Cow. However, we envision this project as more than just an art project. We see it as an opportunity to give back to our community through the United Way.

This project will raise funds for Boyertown United Way while we create a charming landmark for the town, that spreads a message of kindness and unity.

We believe a partnership between The Peppermint Stick Candy Store, World Cow, and Boyertown United Way is a sweet recipe for success.

World Cow is a global art movement with a presence in over 40 countries. World Cow uses art to spread love and kindness, partnering with charities worldwide. Hence their slogan “We are all spots on the same cow” 
 We have connected with artist DJ, who will create a World Cow mural on the Peppermint Stick Candy Store’s building.

Above is a mock-up of the proposed mural. 
Tuesday, July 9th is National Cow Day. We will make the announcement of the mural on this day. For the entire week, we encourage the Boyertown business to have cow-themed specials to help promote the project. 
We are also able to pre-sell tee-shirts with the World Cow logo.
