The Week Ahead…& A Look Inside Mason & Greens Now Open on Barracks Row

Posted September 11, 2022

Mason & Greens Sustainable Dry Goods | Grocer has opened its second outlet on Barracks Row in the former Baskin-Robbins at 8th and Pennsylvania Avenue, SE.  The company promises plastic free products that are ethically made and sustainably sourced and claims ownership of the title of DC’s largest vegan shop.  The store’s first outlet was in Alexandria. Co-owners Anna and Justin Marino say they were drawn to Capitol Hill because it “has the same feel as Alexandria, but a little more DC” – and to Barracks Row because of its proximity to Eastern Market Metro’s bustling transportation hub.
The store is still being stocked but is currently in the midst of a soft opening, 10am – 3pm daily until their grand opening on Saturday, September 17.  They will be open seven days a week.  Here’s a link to their website:  https://www.masonandgreens.com/

Bulk grains, seeds, vinegars and soap. Here’s a link to their package-free in-store bulk offerings. https://www.masonandgreens.com/pages/in-store-bulk-offerings
