Thanks to a reader for sending me a link to this Washington Post article.
The article starts: “On the back patio of the Dorothy Day Catholic Worker House at 503 Rock Creek Church Rd. in the District’s Petworth neighborhood, sacks of potatoes and onions lay next to crates of tomatoes, green beans, cabbage, lettuce and broccoli. Further down, tables brimmed with bread.”

Great post. I invite everyone to read this article and read more about the CW. Its history lives today in a world that seems completely out of touch with its values. Pretty interesting and inspiring.
