The Elmont Farmer's Market is now in its 4th week of operation. For those of you who have yet to come down to the ATS Sports Complex (next to the Elmont Library), the farmer's market is open every Thursday from 9am-2pm until November 17, and certainly worth the trip. Most farmers are there and set-up by 8am, so feel free to stop by on your way to work and pick-up farm fresh local produce. The market has some unique items including fresh figs, fresh callaloo, and fresh squeezed juices in really great flavors. In fact, a few people come all the way from Manhattan just to get these unique items. What a tremendous resource to have right here in our back yards.
Over the coming weeks and months, we hope the Elmont Farmer's Market continues to grow and becomes a fixture in our community. We're always looking to bring new attractions to the market including live music and live cooking demonstrations. All we ask is that you continue to support the farmer's market whenever you can, and that you spread the word about the market to your friends and neighbors. Word of mouth is still the best advertising. The market accepts EBT/SNAP benefits, Debit/Mastercard/Visa, WIC and Senior Checks from the NY State Farmer's Nutrition Programs. To keep in touch with updates, like "Elmont Farmers Market" or "The Elmont Chamber of Commerce" on facebook. See you at the market!

After the disastrous move by the County Executive and the Republican Majority to close half of the police precincts in Nassau County, the Democratic caucus was successful in pushing Ed Mangano's back against the wall so that he gave us a signed guarantee that there would not be one less patrol car in any neighborhood. The agreement additionally stated that there would be more law enforcement personnel in all of the policing centers.
