Down to Earth  Markets is running a farmer's market in Scarsdale Village on Sundays from 9 - 2 pm from now until Thanksgiving.

Here are some featured vendors for this week:

Caradonna Farms, our flagship fruit vendor, returns to the market. They are a fourth-generation family grower of fruit and vegetables producing stone fruit, apples, berries and vegetables on 200 acres. Owner and farmer Skye Caradonna loves to experiment and follows agricultural developments around the world to learn about new varietals and better ways of growing fruit. The farm cultivates a diversity of fruit including strawberries, cherries, peaches, plums, nectarines, apricots, melons and grapes. They currently produce 38 varieties of apples, many of them unusual.

We'll have a range of baked goods vendors on hand, including returning vendor It Must Have Been the Bake. They are a made-to-order, small-batch, home cookie baker.|

Strawberry season is here finally so shoppers can find the first blush of berries on offer at the farmstalls. Rhubarb is also available for home bakers looking to whip up a delicious strawberry rhubarb pie or compote.

Join us for the dedication of new headstones for two significant women at St. James the Less: Marjorie Landsmark DeLewis (died 2017), composer, musician in residence and one of the first black women graduates of Juilliard, and Isabella Johnson (died 1867), the first documented black member of our church (formerly enslaved). This winds down our 175th Anniversary year as one of the first houses of worship in Scarsdale.
