"Now That’s New Jersey"

Ed Finn & Sarah Slattery Season 2 Episode 6

From theme parks to national parks, world-class museums to celebrity beach resorts, there are so many things to do in New Jersey - In this special podcast Ed and Sarah tell Classic Hits FM's, Trina Maher's  why New Jersey is a fascinating state that is often overlooked, partly because of its more famous neighbour, New York.  It’s the most densely populated state in the country, and its home to some of the world’s most famous tourist destinations.  But what is New Jersey known for and what makes this state well worth a visit?

WHAT IS NEW JERSEY KNOWN FOR?
New Jersey is known for its beautiful beaches, casinos, entertaining boardwalks, and untouched nature. With its crucial role in American history and distinctive culture today, there is much to discover. New Jersey is also famous for its food. From diners to pizzerias to Italian restaurants, the Garden State has something to offer for everyone who loves good food.

HISTORY, CULTURE, AND TRADITIONS NEW JERSEY IS KNOWN FOR
The Garden State
New Jersey is known by many nicknames, but perhaps the most popular is “The Garden State.” This moniker is fitting, as New Jersey is one of the most agriculturally diverse states in the country.  From fruits and vegetables to flowers and trees, New Jersey grows it all. In fact, the state is responsible for over 50 million pounds of the country’s cranberry production, and the Hammonton area is sometimes known as  the “Blueberry Capital of the World.”

New Jersey is also known for its wine industry. There are more than 50 wineries in the state, producing everything from sparkling wines to fruit-based liqueurs.
