Edible Jersey’s Fall 2026 Issue—The Drinks Issue—is now available!

This issue of Edible Jersey explores the bounty of New Jersey’s drink scene. We check in with James Beard Award winner and New Jersey native Danny Childs as he prepares to open his new cocktail concept across the river (Field Day). We break down the trials and tribulations that can come with growing locally—namely, an unexpected spring frost that devastated vineyards throughout New Jersey’s AVAs (The Year the Weather Broke the Rules). We also spotlight the rise of mocktails and the change in behavior among Americans’ drinking patterns (Mingling and Mocktails).

And there’s more beyond just drinks! Veterans Day is November 11, and EJ takes a look at how veterans are finding new direction through farming (Rooting Veterans in Community). Plus, our popular Road Trip series returns with a day spent in the lively, bustling Princeton. Finally, we highlight a new kind of culinary professional: successful New Jersey chefs and recipe developers feeding us through our screens (The Social Club).

Grab a copy all across the Garden State—we hope you enjoy!

French Master Chef Olivier Burgos has worked on four different continents. From his start in France to adventures through London, Singapore, and Australia’s Gold Coast, his culinary journey eventually led him to New Jersey as the new executive chef of Trout National, a private golf club in Millville.

Burgos’s decades cooking around the world have influenced his career in so many ways. Read about his journey through kitchens across continents—and his discovery of the Jersey tomato sandwich—in “Global Influence” in our Summer 2026 issue.

A moment for Jersey-grown tomatoes 🍅

This time of year, heirloom tomatoes abound at farm stands and farmers’ markets all over the state. Jersey-grown tomatoes of all kinds are symbolic of the Garden State’s agriculture. They’re an ideal balance of tangy acidity meets sweet, juicy flavor.

In our opinion, these local tomatoes best served on a white bread sandwich layered with a pile of mayo. What’s your favorite way to eat a Jersey tomato?

Welcome to Edible Jersey’s Garden State Growers series, where we’ll highlight in-season bounty within the Garden State. It could be a fruit or vegetable, or maybe it’s a spotlight on beverages like breweries and distilleries—there is so much NJ has to offer in terms of what it produces within its own borders, and we want to bring attention to it!

The first part of our series highlights one of NJ’s best summer fruits: Peaches! 🍑

Although this year’s peach crop suffered a substantial loss due to an unexpected April freeze, it’s still one of the most important fruits at the heart of NJ’s summer harvest.
