Pennington, N.J. Oudoor Market Opening
Pennington residents, as well as the community at large, will be rewarded this summer by a stop to the parking lot of the Pennington Quality Market. Located approximately halfway between Trenton and Princeton, the new entry for fresh fruits and vegetables will open on Saturday, June 6 and run through the month of October. Shoppers will be able to choose from a wide variety of seasonal crops, all from area New Jersey farms. Pennington Outdoor Market hours are scheduled from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m.
Here is a list of participating farms and an idea of what you can expect to find at their respective stands.
