Martel Sweets
Assistant Manager, Lemon Leaf
Church Musician
Truck Driver

“Now that I am assistant manager at Lemon Leaf, I have gotten to know so many more people than ever before.  It’s opened me up to new challenges, but dealing with people is easy for me.  I love people.  Whenever a customer has a complaint (and that’s not very often), I just try to give them as much comfort as possible.  Just try to keep them as happy as I can.”

Interviewed by Jonathan Chace and photographed by Lani Seikaly

Editor Note: The Chestertown Spy and RiverArts have partnered in 2016 to share the art organization’s community arts project “Humans of Kent County,” designed to celebrate the wonderful, unique folks who live and work in Kent County. Citizens are invited to interview and photograph from young to old from all corners of the county and to submit a photograph and brief story to be part of the project. It will be posted on the Spy each week and each quarter the most interesting photos and stories will be enlarged and produced for an exhibition at the RiverArts gallery in Chestertown.

    It is always a pleasure to be greeted by Martel when I come to Lemon Leaf. He is always friendly and welcoming. One can tell he loves what he does.
