Local farmers and vendors, very crowded even in a light rain - parking can be a challenge in the Sunday weekend, so make sure you pick your parking a bit further away unless you wanted to wait in the car for a while. Lots of veggie and fruit vendors - be prepared, they charge more for local produce (higher than Whole Foods) although from what I could tell, very good quality (albeit not a lot of organic). Some food carts, too, will be back to try those! Lots of pets, too, watch the dogs underfoot. read more

Lots of variety! And dogs! Super family friendly, or just a great place to walk through. With lots of local bakers, farmers, cheese makers, coffee vendors, lotion or soap bar, Popsicle stands, protein suppliers and more, you'll find everything you need and more here. I was even surprised to find a distiller here and it's fantastic! Bought me a bottle of whiskey as a souvenir! Street parking is available. And come early on the hot days. Enjoy! read more

Summit Farmers Market is open for the season, now through mid-December, 8:00AM-1:00PM every Sunday. There's plenty of free parking across the street in the municipal lot behind the CVS. There are nearly 50 vendors participating this season. Most of my favorites are back this year. I always look forward to shopping here every weekend, when I can. As everywhere else, food prices have risen, so I want to support the local farmers as much as possible. Today, I bought beautiful rhubarb, strawberries, arugula, red romaine lettuce, asparagus, baby shittake mushrooms, tomatoes, eggs, bread and rolls, a gallon of cider, cider doughnuts, fresh-caught flounder, beef steaks, and a potted basil plant. read more

I've been coming here for years and the summit farmers market has the most variety of local vendors around. I will say, it's quite crowded around 12 so definitely come when it opens. It's dog friendly, too! read more

It's one of our favorites in the area. Great produce options, lots of specialty foods, pizza truck most Sundays, and some of the best kielbasa and empanadas around. read more

Huge selection of produce, bread, cheese, plants, pastry, coffee, ready-to-eat Italian fresh and frozen entrees, food trucks too but trés cher, the Summit market is for people who don't have to ask what anything costs. A dozen organic eggs are $8.25, a slice of eggplant pie is $12, a sesame twist is $5.25 and a breakfast tostada is $7. So I love the selection but the high prices means I'm not a fan. I have a few gluten-challenged people in my life so the Farmer & the Chickpea stand was fascinating. They sell an enormous selection of gluten-free goodies, great stuff like a 4" thick eggplant pie in quinoa crust, roasted chickpeas slathered with sundried tomatoes, and sweets too. Hoboken farms brings a great variety of breads, I succumbed to the siren call of the pretzel loaf, the salt-caraway seed rolls and the olive bread. But I balked at paying $7.50 for a rectangular loaf of whole-grain bread :( The Taco Autentica truck will make you a breakfast tostada with huevos rancheros on top for $7, it's not posted so you gotta ask the (grumpy) man behind the counter. This is the biggest market of the area, maybe the size of Chatham combined with Morristown. Many of the vendors I've only seen here, like Brownie points, the taco truck, the lemonade stand, etc. Otherwise considerable overlap - the cheese people and the pickle people are at all these markets, ditto for the fish people, the pizza truck comes to Chatham, etc. Parking is strictly on the street or city lots, easy and free at 8:30am. Yeah I went a bit overboard on the pictures. read more

My first visit to Summit Farmers Market and I was impressed. I was expecting a rinky dink parking lot filled with veggies that have gone bad. Instead there are fresh fruits and veggies, a pickle stand (try their samples), a couple of baked goods tents (more samples please) and even a pizza truck from Pizza Vita...go there and try their breakfast pizza...crust, toppings...oh so delicious. Pizza is good any time of the day! More about the market, it's not huge but it's not skimpy either. Lots of vendors. Lots of great samples. Great way to shop local. Everyone seems to be in a good mood. Bring your dog since their were tons of people walking them Ample parking. Great prices. Healthy options. ENJOY! read more

Pretty solid farmers market that we discovered after attending a wedding in the area. For those who live in Jersey City, Hoboken, Newark, or even NYC, this farmers market is located right off of Route 78. There's also a Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, and Target within a few minutes' drive, to say nothing of downtown Summit itself, so it's conveniently located and perfect for a day trip away from urban living. As other yelp reviewers have said, park up the street on the corner of Deforest Ave and Summit Ave -- the lot is open and free on Sundays, and is steps away from the market, so you can't beat it. We were impressed by the four or five large produce vendors from farms all over New Jersey, and between all of them we were able to pick up all the veggies on our grocery list for the week. The prices were reasonable and the vendors were very friendly. The market closes at 1pm, but even at 12pm we found mostly everything well-stocked. Note that many of the produce vendors are cash only. Don't miss out on some of the other awesome vendors here as well, including Lizzmonade (very refreshing on a hot summer day), the pickle vendor, and an artisan bread stand where we picked up a few delicious pretzel buns to include with our dinner that evening. There was also a coal-fired pizza truck, a granola vendor, an Italian food stand, and several other odds-and-ends vendors selling things like candles, honey, jams, and more. There isn't much seating or shade in the lot itself, so wear something cool and comfortable and maybe throw on a bit of sunscreen. If you plan on coming here for lunch, try to scope out a shady bench to retreat to on your way in. The market is also pet-friendly; there were a bunch of pups hanging out and enjoying themselves everywhere we turned. We loved it and will definitely be back! read more

Nice low key farmers market open on Sundays. Fresh veggies and fruits check. Delicious breads check. Pastries galore. Pizza truck and taqueria truck are both awesome. Lizzmonade is there hawking Blueberry coffee which I was skeptical of. There was fresh pasta and fish, local made honey, organic soaps and candles, you name it it was there. The quality of the produce was very good. Cheeses were there in abundance as was the Picklicious guys. Those pickled products are great and are reasonably priced. Only two weeks left so go now. read more

It's a rare Sunday that I miss the chance to hit this market. The market is a good size, though not overwhelmingly large. They offer a great variety of vendors - produce (both organic and not), baked goods, fancy cheeses, pickles, wool, honey, Jams by Kim, Hoboken Farms, seafood, meats, and more. The only downside to the market is that is does get incredibly crowded, and there can be quite a wait to find parking. However, since it does run for several hours, I don't mind parking a few blocks away and hoofing it - not like I'll miss *that* much by walking! What I've noticed about this market is how friendly everyone is. And I don't just mean the vendors (who are phenomenal - super nice, knowledgeable, and truly want their customers to love their product). So many people come with their kids and their dogs, saying hi and chit-chatting while waiting in line. It is one of the greatest displays of "community" you can find. My list of "musts" for the market include: - Crepes from Brownie Points, Nutella being my favorite - Everything from Jams by Kim, she has tons of flavors to sample and most of her jams/jellies are made using local ingredients - Sausage & Pepper roll and fresh mozzarella from Hoboken Farms - Honey sticks from Tassot Apiaries, lots of great flavors - Tiramisu from Paolo's Kitchen There so much to try and buy, it's easy to spend an hour or two wandering around and having a great time! read more

I must admit it never occurred to me to review the market but why not , I go often enough.The fish stand , when it's in action is the worlds greatest fish store as far as I'm concerned.The best flounder , tuna and monkfish you will get , not cheap. This is a good source of quality produce-depending on the season , good figs,turnips, parsnips, apples , pears,cranberry beans, lima beans,mustard greens.One stand sells good ground lamb.A Polish stand has good kielbasy, stuffed cabbage and pierogi.Basil and good tomatoes when in season.The expensive cheese is from Long Valley and it is very good sheep cheese and expensive to produce.Sheep have the annoying habit of not being cows ( in other words they don't produce a lot of milk). read more

This is the best farmers market around. There are five family-type farms (two are organic), a fruit farm, a mushroom forager - great selection of locally farmed foods. Also Shore Catch from Barnegat for fish. This is always my first stop. It doesn't get fresher. New this year is a Korean stand called Kimchi Culture - they have really good kimchi! Hoboken Farms is always a stop for great bread. Lots of other specialty vendors, check out the list on the website. This market is worth it for a Sunday outing. Tip - go early, it gets really crowded. read more

This market happens on Sunday mornings, which makes parking in downtown Summit unbelievably easy. It is a fairly compact assembly of about 20 vendors, including the wonderful Hoboken Farms, which has a terrific frozen selection of locally raised steaks, lemon chicken, pasta dishes, etc. Several farms are here during the summer, and the quality is quite good. They even have some heirloom tomatoes. I picked up some beautiful, large, juicy garlic here this past weekend. They also have a pickle vendor (mediocre and overpriced) and a pretty good baked goods place from the area (get the "duffin", a cross between a donut and a muffin). Mmmmm. It's not Union Square, but it's a much shorter (and much cheaper) drive! read more

This is an excellent farmers market, lots to choose from and plenty of specialty items. Apiaries, an alpaca farm, foraged items (fresh porcinis!), all sorts of great stuff. read more

Love this farmers market! It is small but they have a good selection of vendors and everything is top notch! You have the usual selections you need at every farmers market including meat, seafood, bread, produce, coffee, cheese, eggs, and sweets. In addition to your usuals you have some great vendors that make Summit's Market special. You have an awesome nut/dried fruit/ trail mix vendor, my personnel favorite The Farmer and The Chickpea, a pickle vendor, homemade pasta, and some homemade Italian offerings. It is a great way to spend a Sunday morning, do some weekly shopping, or stop by for lunch! read more

I love farmers market! This one didn't dissapoint, not to mention it's super close to where we live, 5 min drive. There's plenty bread selection, produce and the usual stuff you find at farmers market. The reason I docked 2 stars is because there aren't enough cooked food vendors. I only saw a couple, the prominent one being vita pizza. There also aren't tables or grassy areas near by to sit and enjoy the pizza. This was somewhat dissapinting. I hate to bring freshly baked pizza home and have it become soggy. We ended up buying apple cider and fresh cod. Will definitely visit again and try that pizza, hopefully find a place to sit and enjoy it read more

Pretty good farmers market with plenty and diverse selection of vendors. I would say the best one in the area. You can find vegetables, fruits, honey, pies, homemade raviolis, sausages, frozen dishes to go, fish, poultry, meat, candles, baguettes. Just about everything! You can also find food trucks there as well, such as personal pizzas and tacos. read more

Big fan of the fact that this is in town and offered every Sunday. Huge list of vendors who all have top-quality offerings. Jams, honeys, produce (all fresh and priced well), meats, olives and pickles, and baguettes. My wife and I like to walk to the market on a Sunday morning and see what's being offered. A lot of the vendors give you samples before you buy, and it's not ever too packed. If you're nearby, I'd definitely recommend swinging by to check out the produce - they have great tomatoes and fresh lettuce. Some of the vendors take credit cards as well, so it's not all cash only! Some of the items are priced a bit high, but the things we like to get (produce and nuts, olives, pickles, etc) are priced fair. read more

Amazing market. Prices are generally reasonable. Friendly vendors. Park up the street for up to one hour free in municipal lot. Crowded but not overly that you can't enjoy it. Food trucks so you can grab a bite to eat while shopping. Very enjoyable! Will return again. read more

Crowded and small but has everything you would expect from a farmers market--abundance of fruits and veggies, bread, lemonade, and fresh made pasta. They also have a taco truck and a pizza truck so you can eat an actual lunch while shopping. Plenty of on street parking. Good for dog watching! read more

The Summit Farmer's market is one of the best in the area. Always has local farmers with fresh produce, fresh pasta company, fish monger, farm raised meats, a Polish kielbasi maker, local honey, sweets etc. You get none of the frou-frou as you do as some other markets selling woolens, carvings, metal work. Get there relatively early, because by 1PM, many of the vendors are running low. read more

whatever you do, do not miss jams by kim if you're stopping by this fantastic market. i never thought i'd willingly pay $10 for a small jar of jam, but once i tasted her ginger orange jam, i was hooked. it is definitely addictive. don't miss this stand, and be sure to check out all the fantastic flavors she keeps introducing. (no, i am not her relative--just a real dedicated fan. carol z read more
