So grateful for our German Village community ❤️

As many of you may know, our neighbors at The Thurman Cafe recently suffered a devastating loss due to a fire. We want to support them in any way we can as they work toward reopening.

From tomorrow through May 3rd, Schmidt's Sausage Haus will donate $1 for every cream puff sold to aid in their recovery efforts. Every little bit helps.

Join us in supporting a beloved German Village staple 💛
