Last week, I took a much-needed vacation, or staycation, visiting several different places that deserve to be shared in two parts. To begin, I'll feature Kennedy Cellars Winery, situated at 839 13th St. in Hammonton. https://kennedycellarswine.com Kennedy Cellars is a standout in the winemaking world, fueled by Jack Kennedy's (unrelated to the famous Kennedy family) genuine passion for the craft, which became his lifelong dream. Originally starting as a wine-making school, Jack took the reins in 2016 and transformed it into an incredible educational experience. After years of perfecting the winemaking process and working with vineyards and vintners worldwide, KC has become one of South Jersey's top intimate wineries. KC is more than just a winery—it's a place to relax and enjoy yourself, whether alone or with family and friends. They even have an absolutely adorable support dog.
Hello, my name is Pauline (AKA Jerzy P). I have lived in NJ for over 50 years and know little about the state's history and other counties. I'm starting this blog to show and recommend various places I've been to within the different counties of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and other states of interest. I also like to take photos of the foods I've eaten and the alcohol I've tasted in different Wineries, breweries, and distilleries.

My Summer Vacation Pt.1
Our next stop is the brand-new brewery called Magnify Brewing, located at 17 N Main Street in Medford. Their first location is in Fairfield at 1275 Bloomfield Ave, building 7, Unit 40C. magnifybrewing.com Magnify features an impressive variety of craft stouts, lagers, IPAs, and even craft seltzers. You can order online for home delivery or pick them up on a first-come, first-served basis. It's a BYOF (Bring Your Own Food) spot, and the Medford location also has a food truck on-site that's both dog-friendly and family-friendly. If you're planning a private party or another event, you can email them for more details. While they don't provide flights, they do offer free samples.
Now, from Medford to Cherry Hill, as we take a nature walk to this beautiful historical site called Barclay Farms, a living history museum located at 209 Barclay Ln, Cherry Hill Township. chnj.gov, just type in key keyword "Barclay Farmstead". The museum is open on Wednesdays from 12 to 4 pm and on the first Sunday of each month from 1 to 4 pm, March through November. Built in 1816 by Quaker farmer Joseph Thorn, the Barclay Farmhouse and its 32-acre property invite visitors to experience the agrarian lifestyle that once thrived in South Jersey. Now listed on the National and New Jersey Registers of Historic Places, Barclay is owned by Cherry Hill Township. In addition to tours, you can explore the nature trail, admire the charming Plant-a-Patch Garden plots, and check their monthly calendar for fun, family-friendly activities. The indoor house tour is 5.00
That wraps up Part 1 of my summer vacation day trip adventure for now, but there's more excitement to come in Part 2—so stay tuned!
