I can’t stop humming seasonal tunes…“Oh the weather outside is frightful…” or “Let it snow, let is snow, let it snow.” And, of course, my favorite (thanks to Steve Tyrell), “Baby, it’s cold outside…”
The forecast for Saturday is snow…again. That bums me out because the Wrightstown Farmers’ Market is having their first winter mini-market of the season. There will be 21 vendors there, selling produce, locally raised pastured meats, dairy, prepared foods, freshly baked breads and baked goods, organic, locally roasted coffee, wreaths, pet foods, 
gift items and more. It’s a quick market – from 10 am to 11 am – at the same location as the regular market, next to the Wrightstown Township building on 2203 Second Street Pike. See this week’s newsletter for more details.
While you’re in the neighborhood, consider stopping by St. Mark’s Orthodox Church on Route 413 in Wrightstown. They’ll be selling homemade pierogies (6 varieties!), stuffed cabbage, fresh kielbasa rings, hulusky, and nut and poppy seed rolls. See their website for pricing and information.
The Hunterdon Land Trust Farmers’ Market in Flemington is also starting their winter market this weekend on Sunday. The market will take place the third Sunday every month from December to April. They’ll have organic produce, artisan bread, locally raised meats, native plant seeds, herbal teas, hot coffee and tea, pastries, honey products, wine and cheese. The market is at the Dvoor Farm on the Route 12 (Dvoor) Circle in Flemington.
Sunday will be clear and sunny, and perfect for a nice ride to Riegelsville. Imagine how beautiful the snow will look along the river! The Rieglesville Fire Company has their monthly breakfast from 8 am to 12:30 pm and guess who will be there? Yep. The big guy in the red suit (boy, does he get around). Afterwards, check out the Riegelsville Public Library’s annual Very Merry Cookie Sale and Posh Presents Boutique. In addition to Christmas cookies, small cakes and candy, there will be lots of “posh presents:” Farm-crafted cheese and dairy specialties, organic, local kettle corn, pottery, local honey and honey products, jewelry, rugs, hand-knits, mohair and llama fiber, hand blown glass ornaments and accessories, handmade natural soap and home accessories, and more great gifts. There will also be a chili and cornbread sale and a raffle. It all takes place on Sunday from 9 am to 3 pm in the Riegelsville Borough Hall at 615 Easton Road.
Blue Moon Acres Market in Pennington is celebrating the season with a Holiday Open House, featuring lots of cool, local food and gifts. It takes place Friday from 4 to 7 pm. All holiday baskets will be 15% off and a portion of the proceeds will go to TASK (Trenton Area Soup Kitchen.)
