Vendors on this date
↗Ann Freitag Jewelry
For Anne Freitag, jewelry is an art form with a story to tell. Her work begins with a love of making, wearing, and sharing jewelry, and a desire to create pieces that feel distinctive and personal. At Stangl, that artistic point of view brings a welcome invitation to slow down, look closely, and discover something that speaks to you. Choose a piece to give an everyday outfit a little more personality, mark a special occasion, or surprise someone whose style you know by heart. The pleasure is in the discovery and the connection with the artist behind it. Visit Anne’s table, explore the details, and bring home wearable art with a place in your own story.
↗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.
↗Jersey Girl Chocolate
Make dessert a little more playful with Jersey Girl Chocolate’s decorated cake pops. Market photographs feature designs shaped like ice cream cones and doughnuts, bringing familiar sweet-shop favorites into small treats with plenty of personality. Color and imaginative decoration make the collection fun to browse before anyone takes a bite, whether you are planning a celebration or simply looking for a cheerful addition to the day. Choose with a party table, a small gift, or an afternoon treat in mind. When the business appears on the Stangl lineup, ask about the designs, flavors, and ingredients available. These are the kinds of sweet discoveries that can turn an ordinary shopping trip into a little occasion, with something delightful to take home and share.
↗Joanne Carole
Wear a little art, or find a piece to enjoy at home, with Joanne Carole’s nature-inspired collection. Her market display brings together hand-painted shirts and artwork featuring botanical and seaside motifs, from leafy shapes and flowers to shells and sea life. The familiar forms of the natural world become expressive details that invite a closer look, adding color and personality to pieces you can enjoy every day. Take your time browsing the designs and discovering the image that speaks to you. A favorite flower, a reminder of the shore, or an unexpected color combination can make a thoughtful gift feel wonderfully personal. Joanne’s table celebrates the pleasure of choosing directly from an artist and bringing home something with an individual creative touch—a lovely addition to a Saturday spent supporting local makers.
↗Kirsten’s Kitchen
Bring Chef John Hrindo’s cooking into your own kitchen with a delicious collection of homemade sauces, dressings, fresh mozzarella, and pastas. Kirsten’s Kitchen makes it easy to build a meal around a few well-chosen ingredients, with favorites such as marinara and puttanesca alongside vinaigrettes and marinated roasted peppers. It’s a tempting stop for anyone who loves good food and the pleasure of sharing it. Start with pasta and sauce for supper, pair mozzarella with market vegetables, or add a lively dressing to a bowl of fresh greens. These are the kinds of staples that make a simple meal feel special. Visit John’s table, discover what’s available, and bring home the makings of your next delicious gathering around the dinner table.
↗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.
↗P & L Crafts
Give a garden corner a cheerful new resident with P & L Crafts. Jim Luxich’s handcrafted birdhouses and seasonal home decorations combine practical little shapes with painted floral details and bright color. The collection brings a playful spirit to woodcraft, inviting you to appreciate both the structure of a piece and the personal touch of its decoration. A small object can make a favorite outdoor space feel more welcoming. Browse the gallery for colors and designs that fit your home, or think of someone who loves a garden gift. When Jim is on the lineup, ask about the intended use and care of the available pieces. It is a chance to choose something with character and support the hands-on creativity that makes a local market worth exploring.
↗Rustic Imperfections
Bring natural character into your home and garden with Rustic Imperfections. Woodworker Allyson Neuberger creates pieces that combine useful forms with the individuality of wood, including raised pet-feeding stations, wooden planters, and decorative wood-framed artwork featured in the market’s photographs. The collection makes room for practical needs and personal expression, showing how a familiar material can become something distinctive in everyday surroundings. Browse with a favorite corner, a garden project, or a pet’s space in mind. Look closely at the grain, shapes, and details as you imagine a piece in your home. When Allyson appears on the confirmed lineup, ask about the work available and its care. Choosing directly from a woodworker adds another layer of connection to a useful purchase.
↗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 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.
