“We’re excited to meet the people from this area of Westchester,” said Glenn Bickelman of American Pride Seafood, “We’re bringing sea scallops, codfish, flounder and other catches from the East End of Long Island. All of our fish are sustainable, meaning we get them when the stocks are high and they’re never depleted.”
Shoppers are encouraged to enjoy the venue’s seating area, where they can visit over coffee for sale by the church. Miriam Haas, founder of Community Markets, is happy to return to St. Thomas’, saying, “We always appreciate the support of the Mamaroneck and Larchmont communities, especially in the winter. Sometimes people don’t know that there are great local foods to be had in the cold months. The shoppers from the summer markets in Larchmont, New Rochelle, Pelham and Rye are loyal -- they’re our core shoppers. This market allows farmers and producers to connect with their customers all year.”
