Fall has arrived this week, and so has our Fall issue!

A good portion of this issue celebrates the liquid assets of the Garden State. The local food movement that has taken hold across NJ in recent decades has been matched by an equally exciting local drinks movement. There's been a burgeoning rise in the number of wineries (The Garden State Wine Growers Association ), distillers, cider makes, craft brewers (Brewers Guild of New Jersey ) and even producers of coffee, tea and milk (Hun-Val Dairy Farm ) - many of whom did not exist two decades ago. We hope our Fall issue helps you learn about and experience them all. Click on the link below to download a free copy of the digital edition. Or pick up a complimentary copy of the print magazine at more than 700 locations statewide, while supplies last.

Here’s a fun idea! 🐶🐾🐕

Is your farm dog a su-paw-star? Then don’t hesitate to nominate your dog for the contest: FB.Org/FarmDog

Farmers and ranchers are invited to submit nominations for the 2025 Farm Bureau Farm Dog of the Year contest, supported by Nestlé Purina PetCare. Now in its eighth year, the contest celebrates farm dogs and the many ways they support farmers and ranchers. The contest provides consumers with a window into farm life through a shared love of pets. Nominations for the 2026 Farm Dog of the Year contest close July 25, 2025. The grand prize winner will win $5,000 in prize money, a year’s worth of Purina dog food, and recognition at a Farm Dog of the Year award ceremony at the American Farm Bureau Convention in Anaheim, California in January 2026!

Shared by our friends at Edible Ojai & Ventura County. This not the way.

The UFW can confirm farm workers were critically injured yesterday during chaotic raids in Ventura County, California. Others, including US citizens remain totally unaccounted for.

Our staff is on the ground supporting families. Many workers, including U.S. citizens, were held by federal authorities at the farm for 8 hours or more. U.S. citizen workers report only being released after they were forced to delete photos and videos of the raid from their phones.

The UFW is also aware of reports of child labor on site. The UFW demands the immediate facilitation of independent legal representation for the minor workers, to protect them from further harm. Farm workers are excluded from basic child labor laws and it is unfortunately not uncommon for teenagers to work in the fields. To be clear: detaining and deporting children is not a solution for child labor.

These violent and cruel federal actions terrorize American communities, disrupt the American food supply chain, threaten lives and separate families.

There is no city, state or federal district where it is legal to terrorize and detain people for being brown and working in agriculture. These raids must stop immediately.

UPDATE: we tragically can confirm that a farm worker has died of injuries they sustained as a result of yesterday’s immigration enforcement action.
