Fonda is a village in and the county seat of Montgomery County, New York, United States.[2] The population was 795 at the 2010 census. The village is named after Douw Fonda,[3] a Dutch-American settler who was killed and scalped in 1780, during a Mohawk raid in the Revolutionary War, when the tribe was allied with the British.
The Village of Fonda is in the Town of Mohawk and is west of Amsterdam. In 1993, the Mohawk people bought land here to re-establish the Kanatsiohareke community formerly at this site.
The Fonda Fair is an annual agricultural event that takes place in August.
