Hello! We are a mother daughter team, Sharon and Sofia Parker – we are so happy you found us! Haddon Hall was born from our love for locally made goods, the arts and lifelong learning.
About Us
A trained Musician, Sharon, has over 30 years of experience in classical piano and voice. You may recognize her voice from singing hundreds of masses at Christ the King Parish, at a Funeral or wedding.
After her professional career, her love for music & the arts guided her to land as a piano and voice teacher. Her piano studio, nestled in the back of Haddon Hall, was the impetus for creating this space.
Since she was little Sofia, recalls her mother’s emphasis on buying local food, supporting small businesses and growing your own food.
These values and her lifelong passion for wellness cultivated her love for local makers, artists and farmers. You will find her running to the front of house and floating around the Curated Indoor Farmers Market.
At our core, we believe in buying from your neighbor, your friend and your farmer - for this is what builds a community. Thus, Haddon Hall was born – a collective of arts and locally sourced goods.
Haddon Hall
Haddon Hall is a unique, shared hub for over 35 local makers, artists and farmers. The vision of mother-daughter team, Sharon & Sofia Parker, currently hosts a boutique style, indoor farmers and makers market, take-out restaurant, instructional music & art studios, professional offices, art gallery, and workshop space.
Haddon Hall is designed to feel warm, welcoming and deeply local ~ more like stepping into a beautifully gathered collection of neighborhood stories than a traditional co-op.
The intention is meant to slow down, reconnect and rediscover the artisan within by fostering community ~ learning, teaching and inspiring one another.
The History of Haddon Hall
... in New Jersey
Haddon Hall NJ is an homage to Sharon’s paternal grandmother, Muriel Parker. In the 1940’s, Muriel pioneered the women’s workspace in Atlantic City at The Haddon Hall Hotel, where she served as Head Cashier/Food Service Bookkeeper through the 1970’s.
Beginning in the late 1800’s, the Hotel evolved over many decades - starting as two hotels, transforming into a WWII hospital, and now operating as Resorts Casino!
For nearly a century, the Haddon Hall Hotel AC was a home for community and service. In honoring Muriel’s legacy, the Parker family named the Haddonfield brick and mortar, Haddon Hall NJ, a community space that promotes small businesses, celebrates the arts and favorites local.
