Andy's is a bright and vibrant place in Hoover with a variety of fruits, vegetables, and plants. Some fruit being peaches, strawberries, blueberries, etc. Some veggies being squash, okra, corn, etc. Some plants being roses, hedges, and other flowers. Although the nursery is open on Sundays, the market is not. The nursery is bright and open outdoor space while the market is indoor airconditioned building.

The owner of Andy's grew up on a farm in southern Alabama, and after finishing college decided to open up a market, which later turned into Andy's Market and Nursery. They carry a wide variety of fruits and veggies. Whatever is in season that local farmers grow but occasionally have to venture out to Florida and other states to get whatever won't grow in that particular season. They carry tomatoes, squash, okra, lettuce, peaches, orange, and anything else you can think of. The fruits and veggies they either get from local farmers or other states aren't organic. What makes this market special is that you not only can buy fruits and veggies to make wonderful recipes, but there are also flowers and hedges to make your lawn the envy of the neighborhood.

Andy's has three locations through the Birmingham area. There is one in Hoover, and two in Vestavia, AL. The original Andy's is located at one of the Vestavia stores. Those addresses are:

3351 Morgan Drive
Birmingham, AL 35216
205-824-0223

2489 Rocky Ridge Road
Birmingham, AL 35216
205-824-0300

Their hours are Monday through Saturday 8am to 6pm, and Sundays 12pm to 5pm. The Hoover store is a market and nursery, the Morgan Road store is only a nursery, and the Rocky Ridge store is only a market.
