Top 6 things to look out for at the Albany County Farmers Market
The Albany County Farmers Market is back and better than ever! Join us every Sunday outside the MVP Arena through the end of September and look out for these top 6 things at our vibrant market Downtown.
1. Smoothie Bike
Only available at select markets, get ready for a unique and fun experience with our smoothie bike! Yes — a bicycle that churns out tasty smoothies. Pedal your way to a delicious, freshly blended smoothie made with ingredients you can purchase at the market. It's the perfect way to combine fitness and nutrition while enjoying a tasty treat.
We're raffling off BIG prizes on the first and third Sunday of each month through September, starting August 4. For every purchase you make at ANY vendor at ANY of our markets, you will receive one raffle ticket. So, if you buy an item from each of our 30 vendors, that’s 30 tickets (#math). The first prize was a Nintendo Switch and a $100 gift card to load it up with games!
3. Fresh Produce
Discover a wide variety of fresh, locally grown seasonal produce at the market. From crisp vegetables to juicy fruits, our local farmers bring the best of their available harvest.
