We have several options nearby for buying fresh produce and more at local Farmers' Markets. Take the kids with you; New Rochelle's downtown market has activities for them and for those that don't, it's still fun. Lastly, remember to bring some cash since many don't accept credit cards and if possible, take along a canvas bag (they hold more than the plastic bags). Enjoy!
