Gabions in western-central NY

hey all:
Say I might be in need of a few Gabion baskets for a retaining wall.
Is there anyone here in Western - Central NY who might know where to purchase some?
Sure appreciate any input
Thank you

Hi Luke,

Did you ever find a Gabion dealer in the Rochester area? Did you build a gabion retaining wall?

Ive built dozens of them when I was a kid at my parents house fro a retaining wall by their driveway, behind there house for the back lawn, and for a permanent dock in the lake. Plan on very sore hands and plenty of blisters from tying them. To do it right, HAND place each rock in each basket that way they wont settle. Dumping them in will almost guarantee the rocks will settle and the baskets will twist. *****, but do it right and do it once. They've been there since '86 and haven't budged an inch.
