Now open EVERY Saturday, RAIN OR SHINE! So many great farms, food, and beverage vendors in one place!

👋🏽 A little about the West Windsor Community Farmers Market!!

✨ Magic is created when we all gather directly with the passionate farms and vendors who grow, raise and produce our food, and our community-at-large in an open-air environment of inclusion, diversity and well-being.

🌱We’re a 501 (c)(3) non-profit group of eight volunteer board members and two managers whose mission since 2004 has been to support and promote NJ farmers and create community around health & wellness. We all work full-time outside of market days and spend practically another full-time amount organizing behind the scenes.

🫛What began with eight farms and one baker in a tiny section of the Vaughn Lot at the Princeton Junction Train Station has grown in 23 years to curate over sixty farms and vendors including knife sharpening, food waste recovery, distilleries, micro breweries, and culinary-adjacent artists filling two full lanes of that very same parking lot!

🗓️Join us each and every Saturday
🌂Rain & Shine☀️
⏰ 9am-1pm
📍 877 Alexander Road (free parking during market hours)
🚊 1/2 mile walk from the Dinky at Princeton Junction
🛒 We match SNAP up to $25 towards fruits & vegetables
(Winter schedule:
Dec-Apr 1st & 3rd Saturdays 10am-1pm)

💚 You’ll be so glad you did! 😊
