“Dear PoPville,
It’s that time of year again!
This year’s The Mother of All Yard Sales will be held on Saturday, May 17. It’s the region’s oldest (since 1987!) and biggest (40+ homes!) community yard sale, held each year in Adams Morgan (and only in Adams Morgan).

“For the past year, I’ve had the exciting and challenging opportunity to work on a new endeavor called Jubilee Farms. This innovative new entity from Jubilee Housing will be Washington, DC’s first aquaponics farm tied to workforce development, affordable housing, and citizens returning from incarceration. The farm will be housed in the basement and on the rooftop of the new Ontario Place apartment building and once fully up and running will produce up to 13,000 plants per month. (more…)
