The Farm to Table market will feature fruits and vegetables from a conventional farm as well as an organic farm. Variety of vendors and quality of products are key to having a successful market. In addition to vendors traditionally found at a farmers' market, this venue will also give local businesses in both towns an opportunity to showcase their products and services. There is a taste difference in corn and other vegetables and fruit that are picked fresh and brought straight to be sold. Farmers' markets have become increasingly popular in New Jersey over the past few decades, providing an alternate venue to buy fresh produce and foods direct from farmers and local vendors. The late John Becker, a Montville resident who was always active in his community and wanted to see a farmers' market come to fruition, is honored in the name of the market. The market is generously sponsored by two local banks, Lincoln Park Savings Bank and Valley National Bank. Residents in both communities have expressed an interest in having a local farmers' market, so the two towns decided to do it together.
The market, called "The John Becker Lincoln Park/Montville Farm to Table Market," will start on June 14th and will be open every Sunday 9am-2pm through October.
Beginning this Sunday you will find a new farmers' market at the nearby Towaco Train Station on Route 202.
