In Antioch’s historic, downtown Rivertown

By Nicole Holmes, Owner

Antioch, something fresh is coming your way.

The Lemon Tree is officially opening its doors on Saturday, September 20th at 2:00 PM! This will be our Grand Opening Celebration, and the whole community is invited to come see what The Lemon Tree is all about.

It’s a creative third place – a cozy, welcoming but minimalist space designed to be whatever you need it to be. Whether you’re a creative looking for a place to host a sip & paint night, a photographer in need of a clean backdrop, a mom planning a kid’s birthday party, or a leader organizing a community event, this flexible space is ready to support your vision.

The open layout features simple, neutral styling so you can make it your own. Rearrange tables and chairs, set up for vendors, decorate for celebrations. The space is a blank canvas for your creativity. From intimate gatherings and workshops to pop-ups, meetings, or private events, this versatile venue offers a welcoming environment for work, play, and everything in between.

The Lemon Tree is where you can:

Come in on open days to work, relax or create

Book a private table with friends for crafts and connection

Celebrate birthdays, showers, or special events

Join community gatherings already filling our fall calendar

This space was created with love for our community, and I would be honored for you to join us in celebrating Antioch’s newest creative hub.

The Lemon Tree is located at 514 W. 2nd Street in Antioch’s historic, downtown Rivertown.

Light bites, lemonade and community love

The Lemon Tree is more than a space—it’s a community hub for connection, creativity, and growth. We’re excited to offer sponsorship opportunities for those who want to support and be part of this vision.

• 3 Sponsorship Tiers + Community Collaborator
• We’ve created different levels of sponsorship so both business owners and community supporters can get involved, Lemon, Lime and Sunshine

Business Owners: These tiers come with perks and visibility for your business while helping us expand community programs and events.

Community Collaborators: Not a business owner but still want to support? You’re welcome to contribute at any level. Every donation—big or small—helps strengthen this community.

This is about building a thriving local network that runs parallel to the Girl Gang Tribe community I’ve been blessed to grow with. Together, we can continue creating spaces that uplift, connect, and inspire.

Huevos Divorciados available at Monica’s Riverview through September! With all your fave flavors!

According to mylatinatable.com, “Huevos divorciados are a traditional breakfast originating in central Mexico, which consists of two fried eggs (huevos estrellados or sunny side up eggs) on top of a fried tortilla, with one egg covered in a red sauce (salsa roja), and the other in a green sauce (salsa verde). To keep them separate (aka divorced), there is a column of refried beans with queso fresco and tortilla chips.”

Choose steak, shrimp, chicken, carnitas, or chorizo. Every plate gets the house sauce treatment of red and green sauce and topped with avocado.

Monica’s is located at 1 “I” (eye) Street on the pier in the heart of Antioch’s historic, downtown Rivertown. See their entire menu at www.visitmonicas.com.
