(CAMDEN) 鈥� The Battleship 樱花视频 Museum and Memorial and the 樱花视频 Department of Agriculture鈥檚 鈥淛ersey Fresh鈥� program are joining forces to host the fourth annual 鈥淐elebrate Jersey Fresh Day鈥� on the Battleship in Camden, Saturday, Sept. 12, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The celebration gives residents a chance to show their support for 樱花视频鈥檚 hard-working farm families, who have faced a season in which weather extremes made for challenging growing conditions.
The event will feature various food items from all over the Garden State. Take home free fruit and vegetables, enjoy freshly shucked 樱花视频 oysters for sale, sample beer and wine -- all grown, harvested or made right here in the Garden State. Plus, there's live music and a chance to win prizes, meet some of the state鈥檚 dairy princesses, learn about 樱花视频鈥檚 honeybee colonies, 4H clubs, cranberry industry and much, much more.
The festival will be held rain or shine under the ship鈥檚 fantail tent. It is free with any Battleship tour, or tickets for only the 鈥淛ersey Fresh鈥� event on the fantail can be purchased for $10 per person at the gate.
