Summer is the best time to live at the Jersey Shore, or anywhere in New Jersey for that matter. Forget the humidity and frequent weather changes, it's Jersey Fresh!
The Jersey Fresh Campaign, initiated several years ago by the New Jersey Department of Agriculture, promotes local farmers and local produce!
While there are still many farm stands, a joint effort by municipalities and the Ag Department has brought Jersey Fresh products to central locations in many southern Ocean County communities weekly.
Waretown, NJ Jersey Fresh On Tuesday afternoon's (12noon - 5pm)through September local growers gather to sell corn, tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, peaches, blueberries and everything Jersey Fresh! Fresh baked items and crafts are also available. The market is located at Waretown Lake on Wells Mill Road.
If you need a Jersey Fresh fix on days these municipal markets aren't open, try Herbert's Farm Market on Route 9 in Waretown. They're open 6 days, but closed on Monday.
Just south in Tuckerton/Little Egg Harbor, I get my Jersey Fresh fix at the B & B Market, 198 Main Street (Route 9) just south of Great Bay Boulevard on the left. It's open daily!
Find Jersey Fresh Community Markets in other areas of New Jersey here.
Why buy Jersey Fresh? In most cases it's the distribution advantage...produce can be picked, packaged, delivered, purchased and on your table within a day or two!
So what's for dinner?

You certainly can't say we in New Jersey aren't polite.
If you've driven in New Jersey, you might think we're impatient and impolite. That's just not true, as long as you follow our rules of the road. But in almost all other aspects of life in New Jersey, we watch our manners.
Take for example a burglar chased from a home in Raway, NJ (north and west of my corner of the Jersey Shore). The suspect dropped the backpack he had stuffed with a couple of laptops and an Xbox when the homeowner caught him in the act and gave chase! That was back on June 29th.
The police apprehend the courteous burglar and, for his well meaning apology, charged him with that burglary and another!
See in New Jersey, even our burglars are polite!

Client Service and Satisfaction Is My Goal! Meeting your real estate needs in Waretown, Barnegat, Manahawkin, Long Beach Island, Little Egg Harbor, Tuckerton and northern Atlantic County.
I'm a resident of southern Ocean County (residing in Manahawkin) with a great interest in community service, local government and politics. So when you are ready to buy or sell, if I don't have the answer to a particular question, you can bet I know where to get it!
My experience in getting short sales to the closing table, in depth comparitive market analyses, and comprehensive marketing plans, ensure the job gets done!
I specialize in home and land sales in southern Ocean County; Homes in Waretown, homes in Barnegat, homes in Manahawkin, and homes on Long Beach Island. I also list and sell homes in Eagleswood, Little Egg Harbor and Tuckerton. In northern Atlantic County, my service area includes Smithville (Galloway), Absecon, Plesantville, Egg Harbor and Mays Landing.
Though not required in NJ, I take continued education seriously. I am an Accredited Buyers Representative (ABR), a designation awarded by the National Association of REALTORS for advanced training in all the facets of representing buyers.
In 2008, I also became a certified e-PRO REALTOR. I have extensive training in web based marketing and advertising!
Let me put my experience and training to work for you!
A Background of Client Service & Satisfaction
I was born and raised in New Jersey. At various points I've called Essex, Morris, Ocean, Somerset, Union, Mercer and Middlesex counties my home.
I wasn't raised in Ocean County, though it was my first stop after graduating from New Mexico State University in 1976.
Immediately I was taken by the great variety of natural beauty...from the ocean views and tidal wetlands to the vast pineland reserves and the wealth of history that dwells in its boundaries. Not to be taken for granted is the great mix of newcomers and the children of generations of pinelands residents.
My degree is in Journalism & Mass Communications. Professional experience includes:
WOBM FM News Director, announcer, reporter, talk show host.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH on local, legislative, state and federal political campaigns for both parties.
CONSTITUENT SERVICE Directed outreach and service for various state legislators and several state government departments. I was appointed by both Republican and Democrat Governors.
HOSPITALITY SERVICE/MANAGEMENT from fine dining to wedding planning and service supervision.
REALTOR ASSOCIATE making dreams come true!!
As you can see my professional life has been spent working with people from all walks of life, understanding their concerns and bringing all parties to successful solutions...tailored to meet their needs.
I bring a unique view the local real estate market...win win situations.
Volunteer Activities 
Habitat for Humanity, helper, painter and all round gopher!
Friends of the Barnegat Library, vice President
Women's Council of Realtors, Communications Director
