CWH Community Garage Sale Weekend

Join Catholic Worker House June 4th–7th at 1014 5th Ave SE (corner of 5th Ave & 10th St) for our Community Garage Sale Weekend!

🕛 Thursday & Friday: 12 PM – 6 PM
🕘 Saturday & Sunday: 9 AM – 6 PM

This is becoming more than just a garage sale — we are working to make it a large community event filled with shopping, vendors, handmade items, baked goods, food trucks, and local small businesses coming together to support women, children, and families in our care.

Are you, or do you know, a local small business, crafter, baker, artist, or vendor who would like to partner with us during the event? We would love to work together and help highlight local community talent while supporting Catholic Worker House.

We are also currently looking for:
• White folding tables
• Volunteers willing to help cover the sale in 2-hour blocks

Please reach out to Ashley Fries or Dev Jenkins at:

This one upgrade has already fixed so many daily struggles for our house. No more puddles, no more workarounds—just a kitchen that finally functions the way it should.

We are so incredibly grateful. Thank you, David, for stepping in an

 Room 5 has been completely transformed—fresh paint on the walls, new shelving, sturdy kick plates, and every patch and repair done with care. What was once worn is now renewed, warm, and welcoming. We are beyond grateful to David and his friend Paul for pouring their time, skill, and heart into this space. We truly couldn’t have done it without them.
