After nine+ years of operating the New York State Wine Seller on Remsen Street in downtown Cohoes, we have come to the difficult decision to close the business.. We want to thank all of our dedicated patrons/friends for your past business and tell you how much we have enjoyed having you as a customer. Over the years, we have met so many incredible people; it was truly a joy to serve you. Please do
n't hesitate to call if there is anything we can do for you before we close. Stay tuned…
Kindest regards- Diane, Jane, Joe, Frannie and Patric
In the Spring of 2006, two women had an idea of creating a business that would highlight products from New York State while assisting with economic development and restoration of historic downtown Cohoes. Their motto: when you buy New York, you build New York! Their one requirement: they had to have fun in the process! Rolling up their sleeves, the two crazy ladies became the demolition team cleaning out three historic structures totaling over 12,000 square feet of space. Forty-four dumpsters and several injuries later, they are still at it... On the weekends and during their free time, the girls travel throughout the State visiting wineries and teaching cooking classes. It is all worth it! On November 30th, 2006, they opened their first business, the "Wine Seller" at Harmony House Marketplace which specializes exclusively in New York State wines. December 14th, 2007, marked the opening of the Bake Shop which specializes in fabulous baked goods, breads, homemade soups, sandwiches, garlic olives, bleu cheese spread, and New York State products. New additions to Harmony House are R&G Cheese (on site creamery
mastering the old-fashioned techniques of turning milk into a variety of cheeses), Remsen Street Studios (where 4 resident artists create masterpieces and display their artwork), Sawyer's Screen Printing (makes all types of designs and signs on clothing to promote businesses and events, we get all of our Harmony House shirts printed by Rob!!) and Sticky Fingers Gourmet Apples (local apples smothered in a creamy sweet buttery caramel, then covered with milk chocolate and topped with your choice of candy).
