Three winners were chosen from 23 entries for the Gin-GRR-bread Kids’ Farm Habitat contest, sponsored by Starbucks in a ceremony hosted by Scott Thuman of ABC7/WJLA-TV and Debbi Jarvis, Pepco Holdings vice president of Corporate Citizenship and Social Responsibility. A winner and an honorable mention were awarded for three categories:
