The 22nd Annual Highlands Business Partnership Farmers Market brings the community together every Saturday morning from June through early November at 71 Waterwitch Avenue in Highlands, New Jersey. Operating weekly from 8:30 AM to 2:00 PM, this established farmers market has become a reliable destination for residents of Monmouth County seeking fresh, locally sourced products and seasonal offerings. The market runs through the heart of the growing season, starting in late June when summer produce is at its peak and continuing through November as fall harvests wind down, giving vendors and shoppers a long window to connect each week. Vendors at this farmers market specialize in a diverse range of food and produce items that reflect both the agricultural traditions of the region and the preferences of the local community. You'll find farm-fresh vegetables and fruits, baked goods from local bakeries, artisan cheeses, fresh eggs, and seafood offerings that take advantage of the area's coastal proximity. Beyond edibles, the market also features vendors selling handmade crafts and fresh flowers, making it a one-stop shopping experience for both practical needs and gift items. This mix of product categories means the market appeals to home cooks, bakers, gardeners, and shoppers looking for unique, locally made items. The market is designed to be accessible to a wide range of shoppers. It accepts major credit cards for those who prefer cashless transactions, and it participates in SNAP/EBIT benefits, WIC, WIC Cash, and Senior FMNP programs, making fresh food options available to families and seniors who rely on these assistance programs. This inclusive approach reflects the market's commitment to serving the full Highlands community, not just those with unlimited budgets. Whether you're a vendor looking to establish yourself in a well-established market setting or a shopper seeking quality local products, the 22nd Annual Highlands Business Partnership Farmers Market offers a structured, welcoming environment in a convenient Monmouth County location.

Held annually in late May, this craft fair brings together local and regional artisans at Huddy Park in Highlands, New Jersey, a waterfront location that overlooks Sandy Hook Bay. The Highlands Seaport Craft Show on Sunday, May 24, 2027 is the kind of event where you'll find thoughtfully made goods from vendors who take pride in their work, jewelry designers, potters, woodworkers, and other craftspeople displaying items they've created themselves. The setting along Bay Avenue creates a pleasant outdoor shopping environment, especially appealing as the weather warms heading into summer. Craft fairs like this one tend to draw a mix of locals and visitors exploring the Jersey Shore, all looking for one-of-a-kind pieces you won't find in chain stores. You'll encounter the full range of handmade offerings: artisan jewelry in various metals and materials, functional and decorative pottery, carved wood items, and other distinctive crafts. Beyond the artisan booths, the event also features baked goods and local food vendors, so shoppers can grab refreshments while they browse and talk with makers about their creative process. The daytime hours from 10 AM to 5 PM on a Sunday give shoppers plenty of time to explore at a relaxed pace, and free admission keeps the barrier to entry low. Vendors at this type of event typically appreciate the foot traffic that comes with a waterfront location in a populated area like Highlands. If you make handcrafted items, whether jewelry, ceramics, wood goods, textiles, or other artisan products, or sell complementary offerings like baked goods or prepared food, this annual fair is worth considering as a sales opportunity during the spring season.
