As New Yorkers, we love to praise amazing places like Wegmans – the ultimate grocery store that people in our state drive all over to go shopping at. It isn’t just our beloved big-chain supermarkets though that we love to go shopping at, sometimes we prefer to explore options that give us an even greater taste of the Empire State. Happening all throughout the year, keep scrolling to see why we can’t get enough of this massive roadside farmers market in Upstate.
Happening right along the riverfront, every Saturday between May and October you can find the Troy Waterfront Farmers Market taking place here in New York.
A waterfront attraction that's been in operation for nearly 20 years, the Troy Waterfront Farmers Market encompasses Monument Square, River Street, and other streets surrounding the square every Saturday.
As far as local vendors go, you can find New Yorkers from all around the area selling things like cheese from nearby farms, craft beers, fresh fruits and vegetables, lavendar products, flowers, and so much more.
