Jersey Strong has been a phrase that been used in the past year to describe the

philosophy of New Jersey post Hurricane Sandy It can also describe the great

array of items Made in New Jersey each day

Irsquom happy to present these 10 great items from my home state They range from

food to drink to ice buckets and organic mattresses As an eco-friendly blogger I

was so pleased to find a number of green minded products made in New Jersey

As a state that has been much maligned in the past I am very excited to see the

Jersey Fresh mindset emerging in an organic and sustainable way

One of the easiest ways to see if some of your favorite pantry items have

produce made in New Jersey is to check out the Jersey Fresh website and see

their listing In addition there are a number of new and innovative products that

I have been excited to discover this year

These ten are just the tip of the iceberg for Made in New Jersey products and I

am proud to have them hail from my home state

After a tough day in there garden itrsquos nice to sink into organic and

ecofriendly mattresses and pillows To know that they are also Made in NJ makes

this locavore that much happier White Lotus Home offers products in many

categories such as childrenrsquos mattresses pet beds and yoga products

We love to get outdoors play in the garden and watch the birds go from feeder

to feeder The SAVE brand was established in 2008 and carries a line of

birdhouses and bird feeders birdseed and mulch In a collaboration between

farmers and conservationists NJ Audubon has created this line in order to help

consumers get to know their farmers and reduce the carbon footprint of these

items sold in NJ because they are Made in New Jersey Also for every 5 acres that

are planted for seed NJ Audubon is helping to establish an acre to help create

habitats for birds such as the Bobolink and Grasshopper Sparrow

mentioned above are those from Severino Pasta Irsquove been going to Severinorsquos

with my family since the late 1970s and have watched it transform from a small

shop to a national presence in Whole Foods Markets The pastas sauces

meatballs and wide range of Italian cheeses and other products that are in the

shop leave this foodie very happy You can find a lot of their products in the

frozen section of Whole Foods but if you happen to be in Haddon Township be

sure to stop in for freshly made papardelle and raviolis
