Every Saturday, more than 70 food growers, bakers, chefs and artisans gather to offer the Capital Region's freshest and finest at the Troy Riverfront Farmer’s Market! The customer buys directly from the producer - the person who grew it or made it and can tell you how to best cook, use and enjoy it.

For 15 years, the Troy Riverfront Farmer’s Market has provided a community gathering place with live music, great food, and family activities. The year-round market is located in the Troy Atrium in the winter and right on River St. in downtown Troy in the summer. Monica Kurzejeski is the Market Manager.
