📰 News we're reading

• New Wonder Locations Pop Up Across Long Island (patch.com) — Bellmore residents now have a new dining option with the opening of Wonder, a food hall and delivery hub featuring more than 20 restaurant brands and celebrity chefs. The Bellmore site, Wonder’s fourth Long Island location, debuted with a ribbon-cutting and giveaways and offers made-to-order dishes with free delivery. The company plans several more Long Island openings through mid-2026.
   

• Christmas tree prices rise due to tariffs (newsday.com) — Shoppers at Costello’s Ace Hardware in Bellmore are feeling the pinch of higher artificial Christmas tree prices, driven by new U.S. tariffs on imports from China. Local residents say they’re stretching the life of older artificial trees or switching to real ones, while retailers trim holiday inventories and juggle costs to avoid scaring off Bellmore-area customers.
