Route 1 Community Forklift Marks 20 Years with Community Events (Sponsored Content)

Community Forklift is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year with a number of events.

Located at 4671 Tanglewood Dr. in Edmonston, the nonprofit resells donated housing materials and furnishings.

To mark its anniversary, Community Forklift will be holding monthly events all year as it plans for the future.

In April, it will hold a Garden Supply Pop-Up Shop during regular store hours from April 11-13, with deals on new and gently used gardening supplies and a seed giveaway and plant swap on Saturday, April 11.

In May, June, September and October, it will also bring back its popular First Friday events featuring live music, food trucks, local artists and vendors, a face painter and discounts on secondhand materials, among other things.

Other events — including happy hours at Denizens Brewing Co. and metrobar D.C., anniversary celebrations in October and a Small Business Saturday event in November — are listed on the Community Forklift website.

An RSVP isn’t required for any of the free events, but it is encouraged to help with planning.

Community Forklift is also asking members of the community to share their stories, some of which will be shared on social media and its website.
