Vendors wishing to sell perennial plants at the flea market must obtain a certification by the NJ Department of Agriculture.  This would require that all plant material intended for sale be inspected at the Agricultural Center on the Thursday or Friday before the event.  There will be a fee of $25 per table.

Interested gardeners of clubs should please contact the Division of Parks, at (609) 265-5858.
