Two things I never joke about: Avocados and Trader Joe’s so you know I’m serious…
Thanks to Seth for the exclusive:
“the forthcoming Trader Joe’s in Brookland has Avocados. It’s the first food we’ve seen and bodes well for the estimated mid may opening.”
Stay tuned for a confirmed opening date, well I guess it can take avocados a while to ripen, anyway – STAY TUNED.

Thanks to Ethan for sending: “Have heard from multiple places that the Trader Joe’s opening date is expected to be May 15.”
STAY TUNED.
