The Monmouth County Board of Freeholders, in partnership with the Manalapan Township Committee and the Board of Trustees of Covered Bridge, will host the annual Mini Made in Monmouth event from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Dec. 8 at the Covered Bridge Ballroom, 1 Amberly Drive, Manalapan. Residents of all communities are invited to attend.
“Holiday shoppers can come and support more than 80 local vendors from around Monmouth County,” said Freeholder Director Thomas A. Arnone. “All of the vendors’ products and goods are made right here in Monmouth County. I cannot think of a better way to kick off the holiday season then supporting local businesses.”
Mini Made in Monmouth is organized by the Grow Monmouth team within the county’s Division of Economic Development. The division organizes this event to allow small businesses the opportunity to showcase their products that are crafted and created locally, according to a press release.
The event is free to vendors and visitors to encourage residents and visitors to shop local. Products that will be available to purchase include home décor, jewelry, ornaments, wine, chocolates, baked goods and much more, according to the press release.
