By Paul Goldfinger, Editor, Blogfinger.net. Ocean Grove, NJ. This is why we are the “Garden State.” Jersey tomatoes are now peaking. Try Matt’s in Belmar for those.
This market is on Sundays at Press Plaza. It is open from May through November.
When you walk across Wesley Lake via the New Jersey Avenue bridge from Ocean Grove, you will see this farmers market straight ahead.
It is a sophisticated market with a fascinating variety of items for sale. It was well attended, and lines formed at a number of stands, especially for breads.
It is a pleasant way to spend a Sunday morning. I saw about 6 Grovers besides a few who were heading back to the Grove as I walked over.
