Here at [Sandy Spring Friends School](http://www.ssfs.org/), the school year has wrapped up, but the farmer’s market season is in full swing.  Join us each Thursday afternoon from 2:30-5:00 pm on the [Sandy Spring Friend School campus](http://www.ssfs.org/about/our-campus/index.aspx) as our farm and other local area farms come together to make our produce available to the community. Offerings change weekly depending on the harvest, but usually include: sweet blueberries; fresh-off-the-vine tomatoes; crisp lettuce, kale, and chard; delicious summer squash; fragrant basil and other herbs; and juicy peaches. All items are organic and locally-grown. Cash only, please. Find out more about the SSFS Community Farm (at Sandy Spring Friends School, 16923 Norwood Rd, Sandy Spring, MD 20860) by visiting our [website](http://www.ssfs.org/about/our-campus/community-farm/index.aspx).
