(Colonial Nursery)

MIDDLETOWN, NJ — This Saturday, Feb. 25 Colonial Nursery in Lincroft will hold a "self-care/retail therapy market," in what the nursery calls a unique shopping experience.

"You can find an array of handmade items, from jewelry and clothing to home decor. Plus, you can mingle with the makers, get to know their stories, and find out more about their craft. Having a day out at a makers market is an excellent way to treat yourself and support local artisans. It's a great way to get creative inspiration, find one-of-a-kind items, and even learn a new skill or two."

It goes from 10 - 3 p.m. at Colonial Nursery, located at 1124 West Front Street in Lincroft.
