The Summit Free Market is a student-run initiative planned and led by a group of Summit High School students with volunteer help on the days of the events from Lawton C. Johnson Summit Middle School students.

Seasonal events are held every fall and spring at the Transfer Station on New Providence Ave., in addition to the online www.summitfreemarket.org that is available year-round. To date, the Summit Free Market has saved over 60 tons of unwanted, reusable items from landfills or the incinerator since its creation in 2009.
