Bethesda’s Purée Artisan Juice Bar™ has partnered with Bradley Wellness to offer a guided juice cleanse which kicked off Sunday, February 19  with a workshop on how to prepare for the cleanse. The participants received guidance as they prepared for a three days juice fast that runs from Thursday 23 through Saturday 26 and is followed by a post cleanse workshop.

Amy Waldman, Founder of Purée and a self-confessed “Juice Junkie” has partnered with Karen Bradley, a Certified Nutritional Consultant, to hold the program.

“Many people want to try a cleanse but don’t know where to begin,” said Waldman, “A group cleanse is a great way to both understand the process better and gain the support of a like minded community throughout the cleanse.”

Superintendent Joshua P. Starr will hold four forums this spring to discuss specific topics of importance to staff, students, parents and the community.  

Thanks to our caring community, we found the foster homes needed and then some for the dogs who were temporarily displaced during a renovation project at our New York Avenue adoption center. We can’t thank our friends and supporters enough for stepping in to help animals in need. In an effort to provide a better environment for all of the animals in our care, major improvement projects continue at our New York Avenue facility, and this time, it is our cats who are looking to their community for help.
