After only one week, they had to stop the sales of their homemade ice cream.
Danny Doherty made his own business logo. He also created an Instagram account to advertise the sweets sale to family and friends. ' thought it was fun. A good amount of people came down,' Danny Doherty told Fox News Digital. Half of all proceeds were donated to the Boston Bears Club, a special education hockey team for kids. 'It’s my brother’s hockey team, it's like a special hockey team … It's where he goes and plays hockey,' Danny Doherty said.
Tree Street Treats' raised $124 in its first week, donating $62 to the Boston Bears Club. ‘Please desist in these activities’ It was a few days later when the Dohertys received an official letter from the Town of Norwood Board of Health.
