Vendors on this date
↗Bread & Company
A good loaf can turn an ordinary meal into something worth gathering around. Bread & Company, Jill’s Hunterdon County cottage bakery, celebrates that simple pleasure with handcrafted sourdough, focaccia, and sweet treats. The sourdough breads and focaccia rise from a naturally leavened starter, while the bakery’s wider selection includes vegan and gluten-free options among its bakes. Pick up bread for a leisurely breakfast, slice a loaf alongside soup, or make focaccia the centerpiece of a market-inspired lunch. Leave a little room for something sweet to share—or to enjoy all to yourself. Jill’s baking brings the care of a local kitchen to your table, making this a delicious stop for both weekly staples and those small treats that make Saturday special.
↗Breni Farm
A little green can make a meal feel fresh again. Breni Farms, a woman-owned grower of microgreens and herbs, brings color and variety to the table with offerings such as radish mixes, broccoli, arugula, sunflower, and pea shoots. These small greens invite big ideas, whether you enjoy their textures as a finishing touch or make them part of the meal itself. The farm also offers additional varieties by request. Scatter a handful over eggs, tuck some into a sandwich, or finish a bowl of soup with something freshly grown. Exploring the selection is a chance to discover which flavors suit the way you cook. Visit the farm’s website and look for its next confirmed Stangl appearance to bring a little growing-season inspiration home.
↗Flower Basket Ladybug
Wrap yourself in the color and texture of Flower Basket Ladybug. Christine Pane creates sewn, crocheted, and knitted pieces, including shawls, scarves, vests, and handmade accessories with plenty of personality. The collection celebrates the expressive possibilities of fiber: a stitch pattern, a richly textured surface, or a combination of colors that makes an everyday outfit feel new. Each design offers another way to enjoy the artistry of something made by hand. Browse for a light finishing touch, a comfortable layer, or a gift that reflects someone’s individual style. Christine’s online shop makes it easy to keep exploring between market visits, while an appearance at Stangl offers the pleasure of seeing the work up close. Find a piece that brings a little more color into your day.

Follow your appetite to Hopkins Baking Company, a Whitehouse Station bakery making breads and treats from scratch. Sourdough, cinnamon rolls, cookies, and cakes give the collection a delicious range, from something for the breakfast table to a sweet finish for a gathering. Seasonal offerings add another reason to keep exploring, with the familiar comfort of baking at the center of it all. Bring home a loaf to share, plan a slow morning around a favorite pastry, or choose a treat for someone who could use a little sweetness. The bakery’s website offers a closer look at its current selection and ordering options. When Hopkins appears at Stangl, make it a stop for the simple pleasure of bringing good baking into your week.

↗One Compost Can
Make your Saturday shopping part of something that keeps growing. One Compost Can, led by Dolph Geurds, helps households and businesses collect food scraps for composting through residential pickup, market drop-off, and commercial services. At Stangl, participating subscribers can bring their green bucket with its lid and exchange it for a clean one—a practical way to make composting part of the weekly routine. After choosing good food from the market, give the scraps a useful next chapter. Stop by to learn how the service works, what belongs in the bucket, and which subscription fits your household. One Compost Can brings a community-minded idea right to the market, making it easier to connect the food we enjoy with care for the world around us.
↗Pampered Chef
Turn your market inspiration into something delicious with kitchen tools, bakeware, and cooking accessories from Pampered Chef. This table is a practical companion to a bag full of fresh produce and local ingredients, offering products for preparing, baking, and serving the meals you love. It’s a place to discover a useful addition to your kitchen or a gift for someone happiest at the stove. Think about your favorite recipes as you browse: the weekend bake, the weeknight supper, or the dish everyone asks you to bring. Talk through the available tools and find something that fits the way you cook. With a little inspiration and the right equipment, your next market haul can become a meal you’re excited to share.
↗Peter’s Birdhouses & Feeders
Make your garden part of the conversation with Peter’s Birdhouses & Feeders. Hand-built wooden birdhouses, feeders, and bat houses bring practical craft to outdoor spaces, with designs ranging from simple nesting boxes to open feeders with pitched roofs. The collection invites you to look at your surroundings in a new way and consider how a carefully chosen piece might become part of the view. Browse with your garden, available space, and intended use in mind. When Peter appears at Stangl, ask about placement, maintenance, and the purpose of individual designs so you can choose thoughtfully. A handcrafted outdoor piece can make a rewarding gift for someone who enjoys watching the life around their home, or a welcome addition to your own garden routine.
↗Stephanie’s Soulful Bites
Let someone else take care of a little comfort cooking. Stephanie’s Soulful Bites brings prepared food to Stangl, with chicken pot pies among the dishes that have appeared in the market’s weekly selection. It’s a welcoming stop when you’re craving a familiar meal and want to take home something satisfying for the table. Build an easy supper around a pot pie, add fresh vegetables or a salad from another market vendor, and enjoy an evening with less planning in the kitchen. Whether you’re shopping for yourself or gathering people around a meal, Stephanie’s offers a delicious reason to leave room in your bag. Discover the day’s dishes and celebrate the local cooks who help make everyday eating feel a little more special.
↗The Happy Hooker
Color, texture, and plenty of personality come together at The Happy Hooker’s crochet table. Granny-square cardigans, ponchos, and accessories bring handmade detail to everyday dressing, celebrating a craft that turns individual stitches into something you can wear and enjoy. The collection is an invitation to fall for a color combination, a cozy layer, or a piece that feels wonderfully like you. Browse for an outfit-changing accent or choose a handmade gift with someone special in mind. If the making interests you as much as the finished work, strike up a conversation; past market offerings have included information about learning to crochet. Stop by to appreciate the stitches, meet the maker, and bring a little more color into your week.
↗The Sage Dad
Good bread and time together are at the heart of The Sage Dad. Robert Wescott bakes sourdough in Flemington and creates books and activities for families, bringing food, stories, and hands-on ideas into the same creative world. A loaf for the table and something to explore together share a simple purpose: making room for the moments that help a home feel connected. Start with fresh bread for breakfast, sandwiches, or a meal worth gathering around, then explore the wider collection of family ideas online. When The Sage Dad appears on the confirmed Stangl lineup, it is a chance to meet the person behind the work and discover what is available.
