Held every Saturday, year-round, the Troy Waterfront Farmers Market is a popular go-to spot for fresh local produce, meats, seafood, prepared foods and handmade crafts. On the busiest summer Saturdays, as many as 15,000 people visit the market to shop and mingle in Monument Square and on the surrounding streets, milling around between the tents, sidewalk tables and music stages. It is definitely worth the visit, perhaps even traveling there on two wheels instead of four (see our recent blog post about the benefits of pedaling to the markets).
