[Salt & Straw](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-berries-series) is known for its uniquely delicious ice cream treats and its June Camping Series explores classic campground flavors in new formats. The nostalgic collection spotlights foraged flavors and includes favorite flavors like [Campfire S'mores](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/campfire-smores-collection) alongside unconventional options like Buttermilk Pancakes, Bacon & Eggs and Mushroom Muddy Buddies.

One of the most interesting ice cream creations from Salt & Straw's June Camping series is the vegan-friendly Berries, Beans & BBQ Sauce, which replaces chocolate for white beans and accents the recipe's homemade barbecue sauce with strawberries.

The seasonal ice cream collection by Salt & Straw also includes creative flavors like Spruce Tips & Huckleberry Crisp, all of which were created to support and benefit the [National Parks Foundation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canper).
