FROM THE MARKET ARCHIVE
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.
↗Curt’s Humble Honey
Bring a little local sweetness to the table with Curt’s Humble Honey from Flemington. Honey is one of those pantry pleasures that can turn a simple moment into something to savor: a spoonful stirred into tea, a drizzle across toast, or a finishing touch for breakfast. Choosing a local jar adds a connection to the community to those everyday rituals and makes this a tempting stop on a market visit. Pick up something for your own kitchen or pair a jar with bread or another market find for a thoughtful gift. When Curt is on the lineup, ask about the honey available and the work behind it. A conversation at the table is a lovely way to discover more about a familiar ingredient.
↗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.
↗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.
↗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 Haring Family Farm
Know more about the food on your table with Haring Family Farm. Elise and Lucas Haring’s Frenchtown-area farm raises pigs, chickens, turkeys, and cattle using regenerative farming practices, with pasture-raised meats, eggs, and grass-fed beef among its offerings. The business grew from a family’s interest in feeding its own children and became a way to share that connection to food and land with the wider community. Explore the farm’s current selection for a family supper, a weekend breakfast, or a meal you have been looking forward to cooking. Visit its website to learn more about the farm and find available products, and check confirmed Stangl dates for market visits. A thoughtful ingredient choice can make the story behind dinner part of the pleasure of sharing it.
↗The Salad Basket
Fresh ideas for lunch and dinner are always welcome, and Martha Dreswick’s The Salad Basket brings plenty to the table. This Flemington business offers a changing selection of seasonal salads, soups, spreads, and dips, along with Martha’s house dressing. From a colorful bowl to a comforting soup, the collection makes it easy to bring variety to everyday meals. Pick up lunch for yourself, add a side to supper, or choose a dip to share with friends and a loaf of market bread. The seasonal menu invites you to revisit a favorite and discover something different along the way. Stop by Martha’s table for food that fits the way you want to eat—and the pleasure of supporting a familiar face in the local food community.
↗Two Barn Farm
Bring the season to your table with Two Barn Farm, a certified organic produce farm in Pittstown. Its four-season approach to growing keeps soil health, regenerative practices, and community at the center of the work. The farm connects market shoppers with the people and land behind their food, giving a weekly grocery trip a distinctly local sense of place. Let the available harvest inspire your next meal: a generous salad, a tray of roasted vegetables, or a simple side that lets fresh produce shine. Pick up familiar favorites and leave room for something you haven’t cooked before. A stop at Two Barn Farm is a chance to eat with the seasons, support Hunterdon County agriculture, and bring home the ingredients for a delicious week.
