West Windsor Community Farmers Market
What began as an idea by two community members to gather a few central New Jersey farms in 2004 has now become an integral part of thousands of families’ lives in central Jersey each week. With fifteen regional farms, all located from within 50-miles of West Windsor and fourteen artisan food producers, natural product vendors, and on-site knife sharpener, we are extremely proud of the quality and quantity available to our community and surrounding areas each Saturday. Our mission continues to highlight and support the farmers in our great state and connect them directly to their consumers.
Community groups, live music, special events, and cooking demonstrations are regular happenings at the Market. Families, friends and neighbors can be found enjoying a fresh juice, crepe or breakfast sandwich while enjoying the sites, smells and sounds of our Market. As organizers and lovers of fruits and vegetables, we hope to empower all of our visitors to enjoy New Jersey’s agriculture as well!
FMNP/SFMNP & EBT accepted with matching incentives on EBT purchases up to $15/day.
The season doesn’t end at Thanksgiving when the outdoor markets close; indoor winter markets continue at an indoor athletic club twice monthly from December to April. May brings us back outdoors to gather and celebrate the Garden State’s bounty.
Please stop by, say hello and enjoy all our farmers, vendors and Market have to offer!

The most powerful tool we have to protect farmland is our fork.
When you shop at your local farmers market, you help family farmers thrive. What you put on your fork matters.

Chris Cirkus, the market manager, makes sure that each week includes a community event, including local master gardeners and other non-profits such as the West Windsor Bike and Pedestrian Alliance, and pie-baking contests, and cooking demos using fresh fruits and veggies from the market vendors. Fresh food donations are also collected for area food banks at least twice a month, you’d be amazed how much is donated by generous market customers! Also good music each week as well. A fun market for both vendors and customers – a real community gem.
Thank you, Susan!!
Having visited and performed music at several farmers markets throughout the state, I can say that in my experience the West Windsor Community Farmers Market stands above in terms of organization, attendance, convenience, variety, entertainment and friendliness.
It is our town’s Main Street, and feels like a community in and of itself!
Best farmers market in NJ!!
The West Windsor Farmers Market is a favorite place for our family on Saturday Mornings. The local produce, pasta, meats, cheese and bakery items are without fail fresh and delicious. The local food trucks (Tico’s Acai Bowls are my favorite), add to the fun atmosphere and I always love listening to the different musical talent. The best part about this Market are the friendly faces. Chris has done an awesome job bringing the community together and keeping us healthy. Thank you!
This is a terrific market–always hopping!
This market is the best!!!
I have been shopping at the market since day 1! I go to many markets in the area, but WWCFM is the best, hands down.
Year after year my all time favorite Farmers Market in NJ. A big variety of truly local farmers. Easy parking, music, if no cash you can buy money chips with a debit or credit card. Its always such a pleasant and inspiring experience! Thank you Chris for all you do!
Visiting the West Windsor Farmer’s Market each Saturday is one of the highlights of my week, and a great way to start off the weekend!
The WW farmers market is tops! We try to go every weekend. There is always something happening besides the selling of great foods. I love the feel with music usually playing, people bringing their dogs, and knowing you will bump into someone you know, it is truly a community event. Chris Cirkus is the mastermind behind this farmers market and it shines under her direction.
Chris is incredibly informative and passionate about what she does. Thank you for all that you do Chris!
Greatest market going
Love the West Windsor Farmers Market! My husband and I started going when we moved to the area years ago, and it is now our weekend tradition with our toddler. Friendly faces, fresh produce and great food options. We’re lucky to live so close!
