I'm going to be in the Albany Troy area soon and I was wondering if there is any unique plant nurseries, farmers markets, plant events that someone could suggest. Thanks!

The Troy Farmers Market on Saturdays is a great experience , its at riverside in the historic area and lots of plants for sale . The Cornell Cooperative Extension Master Gardeners have a demonstration garden at the Robert C Parker School in North Greenbush which is a great place to see different gardens relax in the gazebo and its free and open from dawn til dark.
A bit of a ride but well worth seeing is the
WildThings Rescue Nursery
Valley Falls, New York 12185
which is a wonderful family ownedgarden and a nursery that sells native plants as well as unique plants not seen other places , tell her Kareen sent you .

Oakwood Cemetary Troy is a another historic stop and a wonderful place to walk , picnic and see unique trees and plants and a view of the Hudson River , Cohoes Falls and surrounding countryside .

Enjoy your visit and if I can help you further please contact me directly . Kareen
