TIPS FOR YOUR VIST

Visitor Information

Most counties in New York have a farmers’ market that is open one or more days each week. Many markets only allow local farmers to set up and sell products they have grown or raised, but some allow vendors who buy and re-sell products from wholesale markets. Our directory has listings of farmers’ markets; individual vendors at those markets often change and may or may not be listed in this directory.

  • Bring cash (especially small bills and change) or checks. Large markets may have ATM machines but plan ahead in case they don’t. Some vendors will accept credit cards.
  • Bring a shopping bag or basket for your purchases.
  • Bring a cooler to keep products chilled if you have errands to run before going home.
  • Walk through the whole market to compare prices, quality and selection before you buy.
  • Talk to farmers to learn how and where the food was grown. Enjoy building a relationship with the farmers you buy from.
  • Ask about products you don’t recognize or know how to cook. Farmers are happy to share recipe ideas if they are not too busy with customers.
  • If you plan to buy a large quantity of produce to freeze or can, come early to market or place an order with the farmer in advance.
