"The essential ice cream shop closed its two area locations in downtown Silver Spring and on Capitol Hill after owner Susan Moorenko said she is in the process of selling the business due to personal medical issues: “I was hit by a car a year ago and can no longer run the company as a result,” she says. A DMV fixture since 2002, the respected scoops chain sources its dairy from grass-fed cows raised on family-owned farms in Pennsylvania. Moorenko said the new owners will still be selling Moorenko’s Ice Cream, she says, but “under a different name.” Its scoops can still be found at Broad Branch Market in Chevy Chase and Henry’s Sweet Retreat in Bethesda." - Tierney Plumb
