The days are getting shorter, but summer's not done in Massachusetts.
The August calendar is full of outdoor events that make the most of summer before vacation season ends, schools start and life gets in the way.
If you do nothing else in August, go to a farmers market. You'll find not only homegrown tomatoes, just-picked sweet corn and other garden delights but also music, artists and a sense of community. In Massachusetts, there is the Assembly Row Farmers Market in Somerville on Aug. 7.
.Other can't-miss outdoor events in August are:
East Boston Farmers Market, Boston, Wednesdays
Annual Golf Tournament, Westborough, Aug. 7
Back To School Block Party, Worcester, Aug. 15
A Grave Situation: The BHS Cemetery Walking Tour, Brewster, Aug. 20
Free Outdoor Meditation @ Boston Public Garden, Boston, Aug. 21
