SUFFERN, NY – The popular Mexican restaurant and bar – Ole’ Tapas located in the Village of Suffern has announced they will not be re-opening. They released the following statement on social media:

It is with a heavy heart that we announce that Ole’ Ole’ and Ole’ Tapas will not reopen. Ole’ Ole’ has been a part of the Village of Suffern for 20+ years and the decision to not reopen was an extremely difficult one. To say we are grateful to our loyal customers is an understatement. So many of you have become family to us over the years and for that we are forever grateful. We’ve been so fortunate to host birthday, anniversary, retirement, baptisms and weddings for so many of our customers that you truly are an extension of the Ole’ family. We’d also like to thank our hardworking and dedicated employees. Many of you have poured your heart and souls into Ole’ and helped us grow the business to where it is today. We never could’ve done it without you.

As one door closes another one always opens. Having said that, we sincerely hope that you will visit us at our new restaurant Sol https://www.solrestaurantnj.com/ located in Woodcliff Lake, NJ. We are open 7 days a week for curbside and many of the dishes from Ole’ Ole’ are on the menu. We also make the same red sangria and house margaritas that many of you have grown to love over the years!

We hope all of you are healthy and hanging in there during these difficult times. Please don’t be strangers! #blessed #thankyou

Sincerely,

Eric and Jacqui Canto and the entire Ole’ family

Expert Tips to Refresh Your Garden for the Rest of Summer

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.

Located at 1040 Route 45 in Pomona, N.Y. For more information, call 845-354-8500 or visit www.dteliving.com.
