Treet's now open for Saturday breakfast; neighborhood association volunteer effort noted.

The following is good news from Helen Spudich, Membership Chairperson of the East Spring Street Neighborhood Association. I trust she won’t mind my sharing it with NAC readers.

In a related note, don't forget that the New Albany Farmers Market is up and running at 8:00 a.m. Saturdays (and also Wednesday afternoons). It is located at the corner of Market and Bank, a stone's throw from Treet's.

Thank you so much for patronizing Treet's Bakery Café on the four Saturdays hosted by East Spring Street Neighborhood Association and S. Ellen Jones Neighborhood Association! The effort was a tremendous success for the organizations and for Treet's. As a result, Treet's will now be open every Saturday from 8:00 a.m. – 12:00 noon for breakfast.

Beginning on Saturday, June 16, Teresa will be offering a BREAKFAST BUFFET, full of your favorites! You'll have a chance to enjoy many different breakfast treats, including eggs, gravy, homemade biscuits, Teresa's famous home fries, French toast casserole, and more! You may start your meal whenever you're ready and dine at your leisure.

In addition, bakery items will be available to order separately.

Thanks again for your support during our volunteer effort. The neighborhood associations sincerely appreciate your help, and together, we've made a difference for a new business.
