Riverhead, once a part of Southold, was established by the New York State
Assembly on March 13, 1792. At the time it was known as Aquebogue. The
Hamlet had two mills, five houses and a courthouse. As in most colonial
towns, the mainstay of Riverhead’s economy was agriculture.
Today, Riverhead is still quite a productive agricultural area, but instead of
the mills of yesteryear we now see horses, sod farms, vineyards and fresh
vegetable stands.
Foxwood Village, nestled in a country setting is located in Riverhead. The
village is convenient to the amenities of Eastern Long Island and offers easy
access to major highways leading to New York City and both Orient Point
and Montauk Point. In its natural environment, the entire village is designed
