Shop Local At Holiday Made In Monmouth Event At Brookdale

FREEHOLD, NJ – Top off your holiday shopping and help local businesses at the Holiday Made in Monmouth vendor fair, the Monmouth County Board of County Commissioners suggests.

The event will take place on Saturday, Dec. 10, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Brookdale Community College in the Robert J. Collins Arena in the Lincroft section of Middletown.

“The Holiday Made in Monmouth is a one-stop shop with a variety of vendors and products for everyone on your holiday shopping list,” said Commissioner Director Thomas A. Arnone, liaison to the Division of Economic Development.

“This free event helps promote and support our small businesses while encouraging visitors to shop local as they prepare for the holiday season.”

The event is free for both vendors and visitors.

All vendors who participate in the event manufacture their products in Monmouth County. More than 150 vendors will showcase a variety of jewelry, art, food and drink, accessories, home decor and more, the county says.

Made in Monmouth is organized by the Grow Monmouth team within the County’s Division of Economic Development.

Grow Monmouth officials meet regularly with business, civic and government leaders to help identify and deliver business resources. It has become a major public-private project to create and retain jobs in Monmouth County.
