What's better than a juicy yard sale on a summer weekend? A big, communitywide one, where people from all walks of life here can come together to sell unwanted items and hunt for treasures. Such a sale will take place on Aug. 10, a Saturday, at the East Hampton Historical Farm Museum from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The cost to set up a table as a seller is $25, payable either by check to the museum at P.O. Box 3037 in East Hampton 11937 or by Venmo to @Patricia-Sales-6, with "yard sale" as a note. Participants must provide their own tables. The rain date is Aug. 17.

As a fund-raiser for the museum, there will also be a bake sale and raffle prizes on offer.

Montauk Chemists Opens, Minus Pharmacy

Frank Calvo, the longtime pharmacist at White’s Drug and Department Store, which closed on Oct. 31, has opened Montauk Chemists on Main Street and is selling over-the-counter merchandise including vitamins and self-care products. One week after an inspection of the store’s pharmacy, however, he is still awaiting New York State approval to operate it.

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.
