Fall may bring an end to summer, but it doesn’t bring an end to farmers market season in New Jersey. Markets across the state continue well into November and December—and several remain open all year.

It’s a delicious time to shop. Depending on the week, you may find apples, pumpkins, squash, greens, mushrooms, local meats, fresh seafood, pies, cider, bread, cheese, honey and enough baked goods to make you forget you came for vegetables.

Farmers markets also offer an easy way to support local growers, bakers, artisans and small businesses. Here are New Jersey markets to explore this fall, organized by the days they operate.

Schedules, vendors and locations can change. Check the market’s website or social-media pages before heading out.
