Janet Treadway and Stephanie Wilson are the daughters of Frank and Inez Treadway who started Treadway Gardens in Washington Township. Frank worked at NCR for over 30 years. He gardened to help pay for his children’s college education beginning in 1969. While Frank worked in the fields, Inez worked mostly behind the scenes. Stephanie owns the family business now and has helped run the market operations since 1987. Janet also grows a large garden and cans 70 pints of salsa in the fall. This land once belonged the Ethel Winterhalter who was the first female trustee of Washington Township.
