Last week during “The Great Staycation of 2012” I had the opportunity to visit one of New Jersey’s many wonderful farms. Cherry Grove Farms, located in Lawernceville, is situated on 230 acres of certified organic pasture and boy-howdy is it beautiful. I’d say it was actually one of the high points of TGS2012. That and sleeping until 11am. Besides having the usual farmy things laying around (goats, chickens, guys in overalls, etc.) they have a creamery where you can watch them make cheese - some of the most delicious cheeses this side of the Delaware in my opinion. They’re all made from their own cows milk and most of them are raw. If you get a chance to visit, do it and pick up some of the herdsman while you’re there you won’t regret it. They also sell lamb, pig, chicken and a variety of other local products like honey and mustard. And if that’s not enough the people who work there are all super nice and friendly. I could go on but I’ll spare you. It’s an all around great place to visit. Just go already!
