It is that time of year and we are all enjoying delicious Jersey Fresh Produce....the best produce anywhere in the nation. Everyone has their favorite and we asked YOU to tell us what you enjoy here in the Garden State....

We are in the prime gardening season here at the Jersey Shore, with so many backyard gardens producing wonderful fruits and veggies. This year my wife, April, has her garden in full bloom!

Five Ocean County schools are among 157 across the state who are participating in the New Jersey Department of Agriculture's fresh fruit and vegetable program which will provide fresh produce to students during the school day as well as a nutritional education.

Toms River Mayor Tom Kelaher, the Council and the Toms River Green Team have opened up the Toms River Community Gardens at Riverwood Park.
