About
The farmers market at Rutgers Gardens began as a student-led project. More than a decade later, the market moved into its new home, Cook’s Market. We are grateful to all of the donors who supported the permanent structure, which provides protected space for vendors and customers to shop.
Today the market features more than 20 vendors, including the Rutgers Gardens Student Farm, which demonstrates land stewardship by practicing sustainable growing practices and providing our communities with quality, nutritious food.
Sign up for our email newsletter to see which vendors will be at the market each week, and follow our Instagram account.
For information on how to become a vendor, please contact Moira Keihm at moira.keihm@rutgers.edu.
