“The government shut down + the generally tough times in D.C. as of late have got us feeling a little 🌀🦀😵💫 these days. We wanted to take a moment to show our appreciation for this wonderful community by doing a donation day for folks affected by the turmoil right now.
On Tuesday, 11/11, we’ll be opening our doors to the public at the roastery from 9am-4pm (or while supplies last) to giveaway bags o’ beans and freshly brewed drip coffee! Swing by 2400 T Street NE, WDC 20002.
We believe in the power of community & connection, and look forward to seeing you”
