When Michele Davis moved to Westchester in 2023, she quickly realized how hard it was to find trustworthy local businesses as a new homeowner and resident. Every time she needed a contractor, an electrician, or even a great spot for brunch, she was forced to scroll through Facebook groups and beg for recommendations, only to still not be sure who to trust when the replies came in. She also noticed so many other area residents were doing the same thing.

The Lower Hudson Valley has no shortage of talented, hard-working local businesses. What it was missing was one reliable place to find them. So she built it.

The Lower Hudson Valley Community Hub is a curated directory of locally owned, independently operated businesses serving residents across Westchester, Rockland, and Orange Counties. No national chains. Just a growing community of local small businesses your neighbors actually use and trust.
