Inclement weather policy
For the safety of our volunteers and customers, in case of snow or icy roads, we either close the store or open it late based on decisions of the Montgomery County Public Schools. (This simplifies the task of letting our many volunteers and customers know about closings or delayed openings.) When schools are closed for the day because of hazardous road conditions, we keep the shop closed. When schools have a delayed opening because of hazardous road conditions, we open at 1:00 PM. When necessary, we will close the store early in order to ensure a safe trip home for our volunteers and staff.
On business days when county schools are not in session (i.e., weekends and school holidays), we will make a decision on weather-related closures or late openings and will post it on this website, on our Facebook page, and on the store phone answering machine.
Location
We are located at 7125 Wisconsin Avenue in downtown Bethesda. This is four doors south of the Montgomery County Farm Women's Co-op, between Willow St. and Leland St., on the east side of Wisconsin Ave.
Parking
There is an above-ground county parking lot directly behind the store, on the east side of Wisconsin Ave. It's accessible from either Willow Lane or Leland Street. Parking is free on Saturdays and Sundays and metered during the week. Street parking on Wisconsin, Willow, and Leland is metered Monday through Saturday.
