Howies' Corner Coffeehouse now the Tall Tree Cafe

This week marks the closure of Howies Corner Shop. After three years on Main Street, Mark and Deb Howie have sold their business. The coffeehouse was purchased by Nathan McBride, a local law enforcement officer, who has renamed the business the Tall Tree Cafe. Mr. McBride plans to add regular lunch specials aimed at teens and those working with a tight budget. Alex Arness, the current manager, will stay on and has big plans to add more menu items. The changeover started this week with a grand opening ceremony scheduled for February 15th. The ceremony will be held from five to seven p.m. and will feature live music. The café will remain open during renovations.
