Scarsdale Welcomes the Return of the Sunday Farmers Market

Spring in Scarsdale officially arrived on Sunday, May 3rd 2026, as the village celebrated the third annual opening of the Scarsdale Farmers Market. The morning began with a feeling of new beginnings by Spencer Place and Chase Road, where Village officials gathered for a ribbon-cutting ceremony. This event marked more than just the start of a new season; it signaled the commencement of a weekly community tradition that will run every Sunday through November 22.

The farmers market is a beloved cornerstone of the Destination Scarsdale initiative, hosted by the Scarsdale Business Alliance in partnership with the Village of Scarsdale. Operated by Down to Earth Markets, the event transforms our downtown area into a lively hub of commerce and connection.

The scene on Sunday was electric. A talented female vocalist provided a live soundtrack for the morning, her voice drawing appreciative crowds and inspired locals to applaud and hum alongside. The atmosphere represented an exemplary image of Scarsdale with local families, teenagers, and longtime residents browsing between stalls, engaging in thoughtful conversations with local producers and artisans.

Beyond the shopping, the market served as a wonderful platform for community engagement. Members of the PTA hosted a dedicated station to discuss the 2026 Capital Bonds Project for Scarsdale Public Schools. Residents and Scarsdale High School students stopped by to learn more about this "modern and responsive vision" for the district’s future, highlighting the market’s role as a town square for relevant and interesting local discussion.

This year’s vendor lineup balances award-winning staples with unique artisanal finds. Highlights from the opening day included:

Wave Hill Breads: An artisan micro-bakery featuring hand-shaped loaves made with stone-ground grains. Their reputation preceded them, having been awarded best bread in Connecticut in 2022 and recognized as one of the 100 best bakeries of America in 2020.

The Wild Radish: An eatery offering high-quality, organic, "ready-to-go" meals that prioritize nutrition and incredible flavour.

Agape Premium LLC: True to their slogan, "The Fresher The Better," they provided premium extra virgin olive oil, a staple for any Scarsdale kitchen.

The Copper Faucet Soap Company: A sensory delight featuring handcrafted soaps, serums, and essential oils.

Casa Cherrywood Carvings: Showcasing beautifully crafted wooden knives, boards, and kitchen utilities.

Blissful Table: A White Plains-based small-batch business offering tahini and desserts under the mission to "gather, eat and love."

Empabake: Serving a lighter, baked-not-fried twist on traditional empanadas.

Liquid Fables: Providing customizable packs of craft canned cocktails.

The market remained committed to inclusivity as the Down to Earth Markets information stand offered seasonal recipes and managed numerous food assistance programs. From June through to November, the market accepts WIC and Seniors' FMNP coupons. Additionally, SNAP EBT users can double their purchasing power with up to $50 in Fresh Connect coupons per day.
