By Nicole Tuck, Executive Director, Bronxville Chamber of Commerce


May 24, 2017:  The Bronxville Chamber of Commerce announces the kickoff of this summer's Bronxville Farmers' Market.

Francine Smith, president of the chamber's board of directors, noted, "We are so pleased to provide the Bronxville Farmers' Market as a weekly resource to local residents and businesses looking to support the New York State agriculture movement. Being so close to the city, we forget that New York is an agricultural state. About 23% of the state's land area, or 7 million acres, is used by 36,000 farms to produce a diverse array of products."

"We are happy to have Pascale Le Draoulec as our marketing director to, once again, help run and manage the market. Her years of experience and ongoing relationships with farms and food providers assure visitors to the market of a unique experience each weekend," Smith added.

This year, music will be added to the market's offerings to make it more pleasant to visit the market.

The Bronxville Farmers' Market will be held every Saturday from May 13 through November 18, from 8:30 am to 1:00 pm at Stone Place on Paxton Avenue, right off the northbound ramp to the Bronx River Parkway.

Other Events Planned for 2017 by the Bronxville Chamber of Commerce are:

*May 31: Bronxville Outdoor Yoga Event (Leonard Morange Square)

Government & History Directory

Bronxville Overview

Bronxville is a quaint village (one square mile) located just 16 miles north of midtown Manhattan (roughly 30 minutes on the train) and has a population of approximately 6,500. It is known as a premier community with an excellent public school (K-12) and easy access to Manhattan. Bronxville offers many amenities including an attractive business district, a hospital (Lawrence Hospital), public paddle and tennis courts, fine dining at local restaurants, two private country clubs and a community library.

While the earliest settlers of Bronxville date back to the first half of the 18th century, the history of the modern suburb of Bronxville began in 1890 when William Van Duzer Lawrence purchased a farm and commissioned the architect, William A. Bates, to design a planned community of houses for well-known artists and professionals that became a thriving art colony. This community, now called Lawrence Park, is listed on the National register of Historic Places and many of the homes still have artists’ studios. A neighborhood association within Lawrence Park called “The Hilltop Association” keeps this heritage alive with art shows and other events for neighbors.

Bronxville offers many charming neighborhoods as well as a variety of living options for residents including single family homes, town houses, cooperatives and condominiums. One of the chief benefits of living in “the village” is that your children can attend the Bronxville School.

The Bronxville postal zone (10708, known as “Bronxville PO”) includes the village of Bronxville as well as the Chester Heights section of Eastchester, parts of Tuckahoe and the Lawrence Park West, Cedar Knolls, Armour Villa and Longvale sections of Yonkers. Many of these areas have their own distinct character. For instance, the Armour Villa section has many historic homes and even has its own newsletter called “The Villa Voice” which reports on neighborhood news.
