WEST NYACK, NY – If you ask a longtime Clarkstown resident where to find the best ice cream in Rockland County, chances are they’ll point you straight to The Cone Zone in West Nyack. Owned and operated by Donna Narciso, a lifelong Rockland County resident, this classic ice cream shop has been serving up scoops of joy for over 30 years.

Known for its traditional, all-American charm, The Cone Zone offers a wide selection of ice cream, frozen yogurt, Italian glace, and ice cream cakes, making it a go-to destination for families, kids, and dessert lovers of all ages. But it’s more than just a sweet treat—it’s a cornerstone of the community.

For many in Clarkstown, The Cone Zone has been a rite of passage—a place where they had their first job, went on a first date, or celebrated a sports victory or childhood milestone. It’s this emotional connection, built over generations, that makes the shop a true local treasure.

As the Town of Clarkstown continues its revitalization project in downtown West Nyack, including a brand-new playground and various infrastructure upgrades, local officials and residents are encouraging the community to support small businesses like The Cone Zone, which have been impacted by the ongoing construction.

Once completed, the revitalization project promises to make West Nyack even more vibrant and family-friendly—but in the meantime, showing love to long-standing establishments like The Cone Zone is more important than ever.

The Cone Zone is located in the heart of West Nyack and remains open throughout the construction. Be sure to stop by for a cone, a cup, or a cake and experience a taste of Rockland County tradition.

Expert Tips to Refresh Your Garden for the Rest of Summer

Published

on

After weeks of summer heat and frequent rain, many gardens across Rockland County, Bergen County and the Hudson Valley are beginning to show signs of stress. Fortunately, a few simple maintenance steps can help restore color and keep landscapes looking their best through late summer and into fall.

The gardening experts at Down to Earth Living Garden Center in Pomona recommend removing spent flowers to encourage new blooms, feeding flowering plants with a bloom booster fertilizer, and pruning spring-flowering shrubs that have already finished blooming.

For an instant burst of color, consider adding late-season favorites like Black-Eyed Susans, zinnias, hydrangeas and fresh hanging baskets. Gardeners are also encouraged to plant milkweed, an essential plant for monarch butterflies, and provide a shallow water source for birds, butterflies and bees during hot weather.

Containers and hanging baskets should be checked frequently, as they often require extra watering during periods of intense heat. If plants have reached the end of their flowering season, replacing them with fresh blooms can quickly brighten outdoor spaces.

With summer sales underway, it’s also a great time to update patios and backyards with discounted outdoor furniture, umbrellas, décor and statuary.

Down to Earth Living Garden Center also offers personalized gardening advice. Customers are encouraged to bring photos or inspiration for their outdoor spaces, and the center’s team can help select the right plants, containers and décor. The garden center’s expanded indoor plant showroom is open for the season, and free repotting is available with the purchase of any plant or pot.
