'Made in Monmouth' Event Seeking Vendors

The March 31 event is currently looking for Monmouth County vendors to display their locally made products.

Jewelry, surfboards, cosmetics, glass, honey, flags, beer, chocolate, and tea are just some of the items that are currently being made in Monmouth County.

To show off how inventive our county is, the county’s Department of Economic Development’s Grow Monmouth Team is organizing the first 'Made in Monmouth' event.

“Monmouth County has a long and rich heritage producing goods and services,” Freeholder Deputy Director Thomas Arnone said. “From our earliest days of lumber, food, iron and boat building to today’s high-tech graphics and the arts, Monmouth County has always been creative and productive, bringing top-quality merchandise to markets here and around the world.”
