Honey Market · September 12–13, 2032 · Flemington, New Jersey
Flemington — Hunterdon County's historic county seat on the Raritan River's South Branch, where New Jersey's most productive honey-producing county encompasses rolling farmland, preserved farmland totaling over 47,000 acres, the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area's western boundary, Round Valley Reservoir, and the Musconetcong River watershed, creating a honey landscape of apple blossom from Hunterdon County's celebrated orchard tradition, black locust from the limestone ridge forests and field edges, buckwheat honey from the specialty grain farms that maintain this rare New Jersey varietal tradition, wildflower honey from the preserved farmland and hedgerows, and basswood from the mature hardwood forests of the Sourland Mountain Preserve and the Delaware River ridge — in a community renowned for its Main Street National Historic Landmark district, the historic Flemington Cut Glass and pottery heritage, its position as the heart of New Jersey's most agricultural county, and its gateway access to the Delaware River Heritage Trail — is home to a multigenerational beekeeping community that has benefited from Hunterdon County's extraordinary farmland preservation program, which has maintained the open farmland and orchard habitats that make this county one of New Jersey's most productive honey territories. This September market at the Flemington Fairgrounds celebrates Hunterdon County's outstanding honey heritage through producers from across the county and adjacent Warren and Somerset counties, competitive honey shows featuring rare New Jersey buckwheat, apple blossom, black locust, basswood, and wildflower varietal honeys, guided tastings exploring how Hunterdon County's exceptional farmland preservation has created a honey landscape of enduring quality and complexity, and educational programs on the relationship between agricultural preservation and pollinator health in New Jersey's last great farming county.
