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.
↗Changewater Designs
Carol Krickus gives overlooked materials a beautiful second life through Changewater Designs. Her fiber-art collages and lavender sachets draw on rescued interior-design fabrics, with collage details that can include vintage maps, antique dictionary pages, buttons, and natural elements. Discontinued samples and leftover fabric become the starting point for work rich in texture, color, and unexpected connections. Look closely and you may find a fragment of an old atlas or a familiar shape transformed by its surroundings. Choose a collage that invites another look each time you pass it, or a lavender sachet as a small, thoughtful gift. Carol’s work celebrates the imagination of a local artist and the possibilities already waiting in the materials around us.
↗Dr. K. Healthy Products
Meet the maker behind a simpler approach to everyday skin care. Dr. K. Healthy Products brings No Worries Balm to Stangl, the collection created by allergist Dr. Kristen M. Sikorski. Lip and body balms, soaps, and lotions are at the heart of the range, with fragrance-free options and an emphasis on short ingredient lists across the brand’s own formulas. Explore a balm for your bag, a soap for the bathroom, or a thoughtful addition to a gift basket. The market offers a chance to see the products up close and talk with the person behind them, making a familiar daily purchase feel more personal. Browse the collection, compare the individual ingredients, and discover a local business bringing its own ideas to everyday essentials.
↗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.
↗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.
