Newark Downtown District Farmers Market

The Common Greens Farmers Market has been a staple in Downtown Newark, offering a vibrant community space where locals can access fresh produce and artisanal goods. Over the years, it has grown to include a diverse array of vendors and entertainment, making it a popular destination for residents and visitors alike.

The market emphasizes the importance of supporting local agriculture by featuring Jersey Fresh fruits and vegetables, which are sourced directly from nearby farms. This not only ensures the freshness and quality of the produce but also strengthens the local food economy.

The market runs from June 24th through October 28th, every Wednesday from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm. In addition to fresh produce, the market offers sandwich and snack food vendors, homemade soaps, and live entertainment from artists such as Hunter Hayes, Lonnie Youngblood, Rhythm of the Wind, and the Halsey Street High Rollers.
