New York state is one of the top producers of dairy products, which local cheese makers transform into everything from gourmet cheeses to classic New York cheddar.Ranked sixth in fruit production among all states, New York is also a leading producer of apples and cherries. The state is also a leading producer of cabbage, potatoes, and onions--the start of many great meals. And it's not just chefs and supermarkets that can get their hands on these ultra-fresh ingredients. Anyone can get them at one of the state's more than 350 farmers' markets.
