One of the many things New Jersey is famous for are our bright, juicy heirloom tomatoes and sweet corn - so why not celebrate these delicious Jersey crops with a festival! The Flemington Corn, Tomato and Beer Festival is returning for its 5th year on August 13!
In a bad year for businesses, this NJ borough opened 16 new ones
FLEMINGTON This Hunterdon County gem, measuring just one square mile and completely surrounded by sprawling Raritan Township, was able to open more small businesses in the past 12 months than closed within its borders. That has officials feeling optimistic for a spring and summer when COVID-19 restrictions may finally loosen.
Just three of the 16 new businesses are part of chains. The infusion of local flavor includes the newest of these shops, a retail store and photo studio called The Corner, which debuted last month.
Robin Lapidus, Flemington Community Partnership executive director, said the meaning of the borough s long-standing Love Flemington branding is twofold: a love for the community and its businesses. At no point has the combination of those two factors been more crucial than in the past year.
