The West Windsor Community Farmers Market is pleased to announce the opening of its 2011 farmers market season. Beginning May 7th and continuing through to October 29th (rain or shine!), the Market will be open on Saturdays from 9:00am-1:00pm.
Opening in 2004 with 9 vendors, the market has expanded to its current roster of 25 growers and food producers. Multiple options for breakfast at the market abound this year. In addition to the baked goods and pastries from Village Bakery, Jammin’ Crepes, a Princeton-based company using ingredients from area farms and Sweet Belgians, a classic Belgian waffle company that makes waffles on site will add to the breakfast choices. Also new to the market this year will be Beech Tree Farm selling beef in a variety of cuts; Lilliepies, individually baked pies and pastries; Baby Bear Foods, offering a selection of hand-made organic baby foods; jams made with many local farm ingredients from Jersey Jams and Jellies and soaps made by 100% Natural Handcrafted Soaps.
