The Seasonal Herbalist
Keep warm and stay well as the temperature drops! Learn how folks have relied on classic garden herbs and traditional plants for centuries during cold season.
In this interactive intro workshop, we’ll cover the history and philosophy of herbalism for everyday wellness, clear up the difference between herbal remedies and homeopathy, and review key safety practices. We’ll discuss commonly used seasonal herbs—such as Thyme, Slippery Elm, Peppermint, and Calendula—along with proper preparation, dosage, potential interactions, and personal health considerations. Wrap up the session with an open Q&A and a cozy, guided tasting featuring 2–3 of the herbs discussed in class!
Please note: This class is purely educational and focuses on traditional wellness uses rather than medical diagnosis or treatment. Participants should consult a physician or qualified healthcare provider regarding medical conditions and starting any new herbal regimen.
| | Final Performances of the Season! | | Final 2 make-ups of the summer season! | | |
Counting down to the final 2 concerts of the season!
We had a double performance this week (and another double next week!) Steel Passion brought the island flavor with vibrant steel drum tunes, while The Saints filled the air with feel-good funk, soul, and timeless hits.
Thank you to everyone who came out to enjoy the music and share in the experience!

Never Forget: 25th Anniversary of September 11th
| | |
"On that terrible day, a nation became a neighborhood, all Americans became New Yorkers."
— Former NY Governor, George Pataki
| | |
In the aftermath of September 11th, communities found strength in extraordinary acts of unity and compassion. May we honor that spirit by choosing kindness in our daily lives and working to build a supportive future together. In shared remembrance, we carry their legacy forward.
Twenty-five years later, we stand together—
25 years strong, and we will never forget.
| | Friends of Tarrytown Parks & Recreation | | |
After a 4 year process, the 501 3(c) nonprofit "Friends of Tarrytown Parks & Recreation," was established on January 1, 2025. "Friends" will work closely with Parks and Recreation departments to aid and assist with providing quality programs, services, and parks modifications that are beyond routine expenses as projected by the annual budget. It serves to enhance the lives of residents by supporting Parks and Recreation.
