Amber Waves Farm is holding an outdoor seedling sale this weekend, offering 70 varieties of vegetables, herbs, and flowers. The sale runs Saturday through Monday from 9 a.m. to noon each day at 367 Main Street in Amagansett.

The market has "plenty of space for social distancing," Amber Waves said in an announcement, and "our fabulous farmers and market staff will help you select the best seedlings for a beautiful, productive garden this season."

Among the options for herbs are lavender, sage, basil, cilantro, thyme, and rosemary. There are quite a few tomato varieties available, including cherry tomatoes, beefsteaks, and heirlooms. Other vegetable seedlings for sale are eggplant, peppers, zucchini, lettuce and kale, cucumbers, and peas. Nasturtiums, zinnias, cosmos, and marigolds are also available.

Slow Start at New Gosman’s

In some ways, Gosman’s Dock, one of Montauk’s few remaining family-owned and operated businesses until its October 2024 sale, closely resembles the complex of restaurants and shops long revered by locals and visitors alike. In other ways, though, it is markedly different under its new ownership.
