New Jersey is probably known now primarily for Newark. Some people may think first of Atlantic City, where gambling is big. I think that Donald Trump has one or more properties there--casinos, hotels, whatever. And isn't that where there's a famous boardwalk?
However, New Jersey is called the "Garden State." Apparently there was a lot of farming going on there when it got that moniker. I think that there is still a lot of it going on; most of the farming now, at least, is in the southern part of the state. It doesn't surprise me that there is apparently quite a bit of grape-growing going on in the state.
