SEVEN ARROW EAST | Locust, NJ | sevenarrowseast.comFarm Notes: “Please note, this is a private property and a working farm. As much as we love having visitors,
we must insist that all visits be scheduled by appointment. No exceptions. Please see website for details.”
Michael grew up in Florida, lived in Manhattan and spent years at a job in advertising. His “love of good food” took him to farmers’ markets where he developed an appreciation for local farming. He started volunteering at a two-acre rooftop farm in the city,
growing vegetables and teachingchildren about food. His work producing advertising for megacorporations made him feel like “a traitor to what I believed in.” In December, he joined the crew at Seven Arrows, full time.
Neil is from Massachusetts andadmits to never having seen fresh avocado while growing up.He describes himself as havingone foot on the farm and the otherin his career as a network engineer and IT professional,working at Seven Arrows in his
free time and on weekends. He also maintains thefarm’s cheerful and inviting website with its freshcrop of up-coming events like “Homesteading Boot-camp with Farmers Meg & Michael” in May. Thereare posts of monthly harvest for shareholders, andrecipe and tips for everyone:
One of the best parts of being a CSA member is the surprise each week’s
share brings. We farmers grow fruits and veggies appropriate to the seasons, so you won’t
find tomatoes in your first spring share, nor lettuce heads in the dead heat of summer. Offering
produce grown, harvested, and enjoyed in itsheight of health and flavor is what we’re all about.
The chart below outlines some of the vegetables,herbs and foraged edibles we hope to deliver,
and when you may see them in your share. This chart is based on our best estimate, but
of course weather, pests, and other events will affect actual production.
June | Mesclun Salad Mix, Arugula, Radishes,Head Lettuce, Baby Turnips, Chickweed, Peas, Pea
Shoots, Green Beans, Spinach, Broccoli Rabe, Collards, Kale, Swiss Chard, Green Onions,
Garlic Scapes, Cilantro, Wild Mushrooms, Wild Garlic Chives, Wild Watercress,
Freshly Cut Flowers (optional), Eggs (optional)
They call it “a closed loop way of life” and, together Meg, Michael and Ryan extend a warm welcome to join them “…as we explore all of the ways we can live a more full and connected life.”
When Meg Paska, MichaelMeier and Neil Despres decided to step off the grid,
they landed with their feet planted in the rolling acres and rich soil of Seven Arrows Farm in the Locust sectionof Middletown. These former Brooklynurban farmers have cut their own workout for themselves: to develop the land asa sustainable, practicing-organic farmand transform the estate landscape inNew Jersey in the process through theCommunity Shared Agriculture (CSA) they will be practicing.
The Homestead at Seven Arrows was already a year-round retreat center(sevenarrowseast.com), offering yoga classes and holistic workshops whenorganic farming got added. This spring seeded the first crops from Seven Arrows where community members become stakeholders in thefarm’s production, buying shares that return produce and products, including eggs and honey.
The idea of a CSA originally sprang from concerns about food safety andthe desire to have local, high-quality production. Community members become the stakeholders who receive crops from the farm, creating a direct and personal relationship with the food producers. In other words,a CSA is a modern take on locally-supported, traditional family farming,—a long distance from today’s mega marts, corporate farms, and head-lines about food recalls.
Seven Arrows has sold all its stakes for its first season. “We’re grateful for the support, “ Meg reports. “People coming to the farm have told us this is something we have wanted, even though we didn’t know we wanted it.”
Currently, New Jersey is considering changing the requirements for farm assessments. With state scrutiny—along with town leaders lookingfor new ways to add tax dollars to meet budget needs—it soon may no longer be possible for landowners to call their five-plus acres a farm.CSA could provide a solution that would satisfy both the desire to maintain open land, while actually serving the community that providesthe easement to the landowners. As Michael says, “Everyone can win with a partnership.”
None of the three Seven-Arrows farmers grew up around farming. Meg describes herself as a city girl who worked as a fashion merchandiser. She began raising bees in an urban environment—a pastime that became a passion that soon had her visiting various farmsuntil she became determined to find a farm of her own.
“WE’VE GOT OUR WORK CUT OUT
FOR US, BUT WE’RE HAPPY AS
CLAMS ABOUT IT. FARM LIFE IS
NOT FOR EVERYONE, BUT WHEN IT’S
FOR YOU, IT’S JUST ABOUT ALL YOU
CARE ABOUT IN THE WORLD.”

A FEW YEARS AGO, MONMOUTH PARK ALMOST SHUT DOWN.INSTEAD, PLANS ARE BEING IMPLEMENTED THAT WILL TURN THE 320-ACRE COMPLEX INTO A MULTI-FACETED
YEAR-ROUND DESTINATION RESORT.
MONMOUTH PARK THE SHORE’S GREATEST

as well,” he says. These other opportunities, which the state leveraged modestly during its tenure, includesimulcasting. In March, the park brought in TVG, the
#1 horse racing wagering website andhorse racing television network in theUSA, to manage its account-wageringplatform. That part of the park’s businessalready was realizing about $95 milliona year in total wagering handle; withTVG, business increased 42% in onemonth. Also, when the state relinquished control, the park inherited an off-track wagering facility (OTW), Favorites
a t Woodbr idge,which also does aboutthe same number intotal wagering handleyearly.
Monmouth Park is“charged with theduty” to build out atotal of nine OTWsites, and plans to doso in partnership withthe Meadowlands in
East Rutherford. “This will produce twothings,” says Dennis. “Purse revenues for thehorsemen and operator revenues to enable us tomeet our bottom line here without seekingmoney from the state.”
Good thing, as the state has called it quits. At the end of 2011 Governor Christie pulled theplug on taxpayer dollars required to keep a
money-losing Monmouth Park afloat from the time New Jersey assumed ownership in 1985. Bids went out for lease. When the smoke cleared, Morris Bailey, the casinoowner and winning bidder, had backed out, preferring tolend his expertise to the land development end of thingsover track operations. It was Dennis Drazin and the NewJersey Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association (the horsemen’s group that races at Monmouth and for whomDennis serves as advisor), who stepped up to the plate tosave horse racing in New Jersey. They formed a
company called Darby Development LLC, headed by the park’s long-time general manager, Bob Kulina, now President of Darby Development LLC. The Horsemen, led by John Forbes, secured an initialfive-year lease from the state. Darby was tasked by the Horsemen withtrack operations and development responsibilities. It was sink or swim.
Last spring marked new management’s first “meet,” or season, whichbegan on May 3 when Darby and the Horseman took the reins. “We had a very successful meet,” Dennis reports. While HurricaneSandy delayed development plans somewhat—the track served thecommunity as a vital emergency center—the park is back on track, looking forward to its 68th season, which opens Saturday, May 11.
And Dennis is busier than ever. “Sometimes my day starts at six andgoes until two in the morning, but I thrive on that. It’s not work. I’m having fun,” he says. “I have always enjoyed the practice of law andbeing in charge of running a law firm. Being involved in the operationof the racetrack, ensuring that Monmouth Park survives, is like a dream come true.”
Consider the impact shouldMonmouth Park Racetrack—an Oceanport institution since1946 with a storied pedigreedating back to its founding in
1870 in Long Branch—cease suddenly to exist. A driving force behind the state’s billion dollar Thoroughbred racing industry,the park employs some 500 full and part-time employees, while another 1,000work the backside taking care of horses and putting on the show. Then there’s allthat verdant Jersey farm-land, hundreds of thousands of acres that the fickle Thoroughbreds call home,and the related agribusinessand infrastructure. All lost,most likely, to development,along with the joy brought to thousands who love the sport like no other.
A few years ago, Monmouth Park almost shut down. Instead, plans arebeing implemented that will turn the 320-acre complex into a multi-faceted year-round destination resort.Toward this end, the park hired Populous, a global master-planningoutfit that works with venues such as the Olympics. Scheduled to open in 2014 are an outdoor amphitheater/concert venue that will hold about 7,500 persons, a boardwalk with shops, new restaurants, and a Las Vegas-style sports bar (with sports betting, pending current litigation). A miniature golf course is already inplace. A hotel, convention center, IMAX theater, andindoor water-theme park are on the blue prints, along with a giant outdoor water park. Redevelopmentcosts are pegged at some $100 million.
It’s an undertaking as ambitious as it is necessary. No oneknows this better than Rumson native and attorney DennisDrazin, a racetrack aficionado, long-time Monmouth Parkadvocate, and the man who’s helping make it all happen.
“Gone are the days of old when you’d get 40,000 on aSaturday to come to Monmouth, when racing was the onlygambling in the state,” explains Dennis, who when notworking at the park is running the Red Bank law firmDrazin & Warshaw. “Since then we’ve had the lottery, Atlantic City casinos—everybody’s competing for the samegaming dollar. So you need to bring people back to thetrack, create excitement. We decided the only way to dothat is to make Monmouth Park a destination resort.”
The vision reaches further. “We’re thinking that the crossmarketing and the over-flow from our racing venue andother opportunities would help revitalize Monmouth Park

I t’s hard to read a magazine or watch TV these dayswithout hearing about who’s getting what enlarged or reduced
all in the name of improving one’s self image. Seems like a pretty painfuland expensive way to pick up esteem. Especially when, for a lot less money, you can
improve your image painlessly with an original, “one of a kind” portrait.One that captures the original “one of a kind” you. So give me a call.
It could be just what the doctor ordered.

After more than a decade of realizing the benefitsof the Pilates method—both personally, from herown practice, and professionally as an instructorand owner of The Center for Pilates in theGalleria—Kate Brannan can say, with confidence,“Pilates is something for every single person.” She is quick to point out that Pilates is “more than just a form of exercise.” Rather, it is a full-body conditioning system that seeks to developcontrolled movement from a strong core using arange of apparatus, as well as low-impact mat andfloor routines, to guide and train the body. Pilatesis designed to engage the mind as well as the bodywhile improving posture, strength, flexibility, coordination, breathing and balance.
The Center teaches the classical Pilates method,using the principals first developed by its founder,Joseph Pilates, who believed that mental and physical health are related. Today, millions of people worldwide realize the benefits of hismethod. Kate studied with Romana Kryzanowska,a student and protégée of Joseph Pilates, andreceived her certification after a 700-hour program.
Her studio is equipped with Pilates apparatus usedunder the glow of an antique chandelier that provides a welcoming atmosphere for clients who range in age from 17 to 83. “Practicing Pilates here got me a better body...and a great friendship,” says one of Kate’s clients of sevenyears. First a client, herself, and then an instructor,Kate became the sole owner of The Center threeyears ago. (Previous owner Mona Ryan still attendsclasses, as does Kim Gammino who also had herown studio.) Dani Alpert is an instructor on staff.
Pilates' system allows for different exercises to bemodified in range of difficulty, from beginner toadvanced. Intensity can be increased over time asthe body conditions and adapts to the exercises.“Whatever body walks in the door, I have to workto their level and then grow from there,” Kate says.
While group mat and apparatus classes are available, clients usually work one-on-one with aninstructor. Kate explains that Pilates can be beneficial for seasoned athletes—who, often, areable to find and work muscles they didn’t knowthey had—as well as people wanting a low-impactworkout they can do for the rest of their lives. Along with over-all conditioning, Pilates is used for rehabilitation purposes in recovery from injuryor surgery.
“I would love for people to just try it and see howit can help everyday life,” she says, with an inviting smile. “And it’s fun!”

Why Mammography?
S P E C I A L S E C T I O N
MAY 1 – JUNE 1, 2013
Because Early Detection is a Woman’s Best Defense!
THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ALL WOMEN
• Yearly mammograms starting at age 40.
• A clinical breast exam (CE) as part of a periodic health exam about every three years for women in their 20's and 30's, and every year for women 40 and older.
• Women should report any breast change promptly to their health care provider. Breast self-examination (BSE)
is an option for women starting in their 20's.
I f you knew a test could save your life, would you put it off? Mammograms are proven to save lives, yet, it is common knowledge that many women delay getting their annual mammogram screening for a variety of reasons, from hectic family schedules and financial challenges to simply not wanting to know.
"Mammograms detect between 75 and 80% of breast cancers—that's why it's so crucial for a woman to combine an annual mammogram with a yearly breast examination by her personal physician. Women should also note any changes such as a breast lump, nippledischarge, or unusual pain so their physicians can order appropriate testing," says Debra Camal, MD, Medical Director of the Breast Program for Meridian Cancer Care. "And mammography can find cancers up to two years before they can be felt, which means at avery early stage, when the cancer is most easily treatable."
According to the American Cancer Society, about 1 in 8 U.S. women will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime. Although cancer risks increase forwomen who have a family member such as a mother, sister, or daughter who has had breast cancer, approximately 85% of breast cancers occur in women who have no family history of the disease.
“The single greatest magnifier of the risk of contracting breast cancer is age,” says Dr. Camal.“At age 25, your chances are one in 19,608. At age 50, your chances are one in 50. At age 65, your chances are one in 24. And your overall lifetime risk is one in 8.”
Annual mammograms can detect cancer early—when it is most treatable. Mammograms can also prevent the need for extensive treatment for advanced cancers and improve chances of breast conservation. Current guidelines from the American College of Radiology,the American Cancer Society, and the Society for Breast Imaging recommend that womenreceive annual mammograms starting at age 40—even if they have no symptoms or familyhistory of breast cancer.

Seven years ago, a conversation took place at Riverview Medical Centerabout the growing percentage of women in Monmouth County—aged 40 and older—who were not getting their annual mammogram. Whatstarted as an idea to educate women has grown into Paint the Town Pink—one of the most effective awareness campaigns in the area that has dramatically impacted the lives of thousands of community members.
Riverview initiated a breast health movement. In conjunction with the Jane H. Booker Women’s Center at Riverview, the mission behind the campaign was to educate local women about a simple and very significantfact: early detection is a woman’s best defense against breast cancer.
Paint the Town Pink launched in Red Bank in 2007 providing the opportunity to raise funds needed to provide mammography to the uninsured and underserved in the community. New Jersey ranks among the top ten states inthe country for both incidence and mortality rates for breast cancer. Certainsegments of the population are less likely to get mammograms including the low-income, uninsured, and under-insured — and, there are 586,300uninsured women living in New Jersey.
“The fact that there are still women out there who don’t get their yearly mammogram is just mind-boggling to me,” says Agatha Emmer, AtlanticHighlands Paint the Town Pink volunteer and breast cancer survivor. “I’m certain that getting my yearly mammogram saved my life, and I have a lotmore living to do, especially with my husband, four daughters, and a dozen grandchildren. I’m not going anywhere.”
By 2012, Paint the Town Pink had grown to eight towns with residents, business owners, town officials, and volunteers all coming together in May to spread the Pink message. For 2013, the campaign has expanded to 23towns and is now a Meridian Health event, encompassing both Monmouthand Ocean counties that are pinker than ever. What began as an idea seven years ago has been transformed into a grassroots initiative that ischanging lives in very tangible and meaningful ways.

It takes a village to achieve the mission of Paint the Town Pink to raise awareness ofthe importance of annual mammography. And, every year that village has grownwith more towns and even more supporters helping to encourage women, ages 40and older, to have their annual mammogram. This annual event merges a breastcancer prevention, detection, and treatment campaign with a fundraising componentthat raises funds to provide free screening mammography through the Pink Fund foruninsured and under-insured women in the community.
By now you’ve probably seen the Pink hue spreading across participating towns in Monmouth and Ocean counties. This year’smonth-long campaign includes numerous signature events that allculminate with the Party for Pink on Friday, May 31 at NavesinkCountry Club in Pinktown (Middletown) and hosted by the Care toGive Council of Riverview Medical Center and BayshoreCommunity Hospital. Party for Pink is a fun-filled fundraiser with dinner, drinks, and dancing to the music of NYC party
band Total Soul playing everything from Motown sounds and today’s pop favorites to the jazz and big band standards of the 1940’s.
This year’s event honors Tria Deibert, Director of Marketing for Riverview Medical Center and Bayshore Community Hospital and leader in the campaign, who will receive the Pink Visionary Award and Sally Harris, the veryfirst Paint the Town Pink committee member, who will receive the Pink Volunteer Award. Sally is from Pink Grove (Ocean Grove). 2013 marks her seventh year on the Pink committee and, most importantly, the seventh year that she is cancer free. Sally is a firm believer in annual mammograms after a routine mammography in 2006 resulted in early detection of “something suspicious” in one breast.
Tickets for Party for Pink are $75. Reservations are limited. To purchase tickets call 855-PINK411.The Pink Fund provides mammography for uninsured or under-insured women in our community.

“FLICK” GALA MONTH at THE BASIECount Basie Theatre announced its 2013 annual gala… “Flick”—a celebration of film and the New Jersey film industry.Kicking-off May 14 with a FREE screening of the documentaryfilm, “Sound City,” the month-long tribute culminates on June14 with a gala and concert starring film music composer,Randy Newman. “Flick” events during the month include a
Q & A “actor’s studio” type of eveningwith Joe Pantoliano “Joey Pants” onJune 6, curated by John Bathke.Proceeds of the gala will help upgradethe Basie with digital and satellite technology. “The Count Basie Theatrehas a rich history of film since its inception,” said CEO Adam Philipson,“this event will honor the contributionsof film and filmmakers in the State—from directors to grips—and helpmove us into the 21st Century.”
Randy Newman Gala Concert June 14 Randy Newman has won two AcademyAwards (in 2002 for “If I Didn’t Have You” from Monsters, Inc and in 2011 for“We Belong Together” from Toy Story 3), three Emmy Awards and six GrammyAwards and is a recent inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. His ownTop 40 success came with “Short People,” from the 1977 Little Criminals.
“Sound City” May 14 Sound City Studios was located in the San FernandoValley, amidst rows of dilapidated warehouses. The little-known recording studio housed a unique recording console and a reputation for recordingdrums. Artists such as Fleetwood Mac, Neil Young , Rick Springfield, Tom Petty,Kyuss, Slipknot and Nirvana recorded groundbreaking music at the studio. The film tells the story of the studio from its early days until its closing in 2011.It then follows Dave Grohl's purchase of the studio's custom analog console,which he moved to his personal studio, Studio 606.

For something that’s designed to put its pointacross in under two minutes, the annualFilmOneFest in Atlantic Highlands has shownsome enviable staying power—a quality thatcould never be taken for granted, here on a
storm-battered Jersey Shore in which any of our fixedpoints of reference could become, as they say, “gone in sixty seconds.”

panoramically picturesque MunicipalHarbor for a unique event that’s a mixof the local and the international —with elements of the most sophisticatedbig-city arthouse offering, and the most festive fairground of a small-townsummertime.
When all those elements are in place—when audiences enjoy a gently coolingbreeze off the Sandy Hook Bay, whenthe street performers and the musiciansand the food stands set the scene for anevening of live-action and animatedeclecticism under the stars—there’snothing quite like the event establishedas the Atlantic Highlands One MinuteFilm Festival. It’s “a snap-shot of what is happening right now in our contemporary, borderless world ofdigital image and action;” one that co-creator and curator Robert O’Connorcalls “a whole community experience—
one that’s about
the community of filmmakers as well asthe community of our neighbors.”
Speaking from The Painted Frame, theshop that he recently relocated to FirstAvenue—having reclaimed the hiddentin ceiling and original flooring of thespace that spent decades as a rundownconvenience store—the video artist andpainter reaffirms the significance of theAHAC’s flagship event as in keepingwith the post-Sandy spirit of recoveryand continuity that’s been “witnessed asindividuals and whole communitiesrebuild homes, entire towns and lives.” It’s an attitude that extends to theborough’s hard-hit harbor area, where repair work on the devastateddocks and waterfront structures hasproceeded apace (the festival’s parkarea having been brought “back tonormal” by spring).
That same attitude can be found in thefestival’s Spirit of the Shore Contest, inwhich entrants are invited to submitvideos that portray the “rebuilding andpositive aspects of the Shore, post-hurricane.” With a last-call submissiondeadline of May 15 (and a top prize of$500), the newly created category isone of several in which O’Connor andfestival co-organizer Beth Herbruck willannounce winners on July 1, withprizes (including a Director’s ChoiceAward) presented to filmmakers at theFilmOneFest on July 20.
Also new for 2013 will be technicalimprovements that include anenhanced sound system (as well as apossible switch to a 11x19 LED screen), as well as the festival’s first-ever scheduled rain date—in this caseSunday, July 21, in the event that theFilmOneFest tradition of beautifulweather fails to hold. Close to 1,500attendees of all ages are expected towatch some 60 short-short films from
dozens of countries (including the UK, France, the Netherlands, Canada,Australia and, for the first time,Moldavia) unspool on the big outdoorscreen.
The judging panel of film critics, historians and industry professionalsincludes returnees like TruTV producerJon Crowley, online critic Joan Ellis,film editor Susan Littenberg, music edi-tor Gedney Webb, and film historianVictor Zak—in addition to a “specialcelebrity filmmaker judge” to be namedat a later date. Working with Herbruckand new AHAC president MaggiMorro (as well as former president Julie Gartenberg), O’Connor held“submission parties” every 3 to 4weeks in the months leading up to theevent to review entries—and went“actively seeking and inviting work” at
events like Vermont’s Green MountainFilm Festival in March. Smartphoneand tablet apps introduced last year have proven to be an effectiveway for prospective participants tomake contact, with some 8,000 users and over 100,000 plays talliedby mid-April.
With the help of businesses and nonprofits like Asbury Park’s ArtsCAP(who “really helped us get our act inorder”) and FineLines Auto Body (whodonated office and storage space onWest Lincoln Avenue), the Arts Councilis “doing really well, with a lot of new energy” heading into the warm-weather months by O’Connor’s estimation. Upcoming offerings includea planned series of living room concerts, an artist lecture series, and a“wearable art” show.
“The festival’s a lot of fun…it’s entirelykid-friendly, and we’ve got the liveband and a lot of other things to keep
everyone entertained, including a stilt walker and clowns” explainsO’Connor. Admission to FilmOneFest is free of charge and seating is “bring your own” (although there’s a preferred-seating VIP option available for a donation, with proceedsbenefiting the Atlantic Highlands Food Pantry as well as the AtlanticHighlands Arts Council.

THIS LITTLE PIGGY MAKES YOULOVE BARBEQUE
MEMPHISPIG OUT
by EILEEN MOON with CJ ANSORGE
ack in Knoxville where Connie and Mark Strassburg first met in graduate school at the University of Tennessee, barbeque isn’t a food; it’s a religion. And, Connie and Mark are two believers who have been spreading the wordhere in New Jersey since 1985.
The Strassburgs are the owners of Memphis Pig Out on FirstAvenue in Atlantic Highlands that was deemed “the best ribsin New Jersey” by WOR Radio restaurant maven Joan
Hamburg. This cozy Zagat-rated family restaurant, adorned withtwinkling lights and pig memorabilia, is across the street fromAtlantic Cinemas 5 (Monday, Wednesday and Thursday are“Movie Meal-Deal” nights when a free movie pass for twocomes with every two entrees ordered). The 2012 award for“Best barbeque in Monmouth and Ocean Counties”—after aheated competition sponsored by the Asbury Park Press—is thelatest in a string of honors that the Strassburgs have earned.

The Memphis Pig Out features authentic regional cookingbased on recipes from the Memphis area of Tennessee, with specialties that include chicken, ribs and pulled pork cookedover hickory. According to Connie, every Tennessee town hasat least one BBQ joint selling either chopped or pulled pork(pulled refers to being pulled apart with forks after cooking).“We introduced pulled pork to this area over twenty-eightyears ago,” she explains. “Now it’s a staple.”
Spare ribs and baby backs are the biggestsellers, but the house-cut Black Angus steaks are gaining momentum, with recentlyintroduced pork osso buco and pork chopsau poivre moving up the ranks. Southernfried catfish, fresh from farms in Alabamaand Mississippi, is on the menu, along withseafood specialties that include salmoncooked on the grill and barbecued shrimp.All entrees come with fresh-cut French fries, achoice of baked beans or southern turnipgreens and a 43-item salad bar that includes such south-of-the-Mason-Dixon lineclassics as black-eyed peas, southern potato salad, and bourbon-laced, house-made apple sauce.
Other notable dishes includesouthern mac-n-cheese madewith three different cheesesand Memphis-style chili containing fresh-ground ribsand three different beans and black-eyed peas. Not sohungry? Pair an appetizerwith the salad bar or a burger or prize-winningpulled pork sandwich.
Connie has a Masters Degree in foodchemistry from the University ofTennessee. She is also a pastry chef, witha certificate from Brookdale CommunityCollege Culinary Arts Program and her fresh strawberry pie and Tennesseehot fudge cake prove it. “They’re mygrandmother’s recipes,“ she explains.Gourmet magazine once asked for—
and published—Connie’s strawberry pie recipe.
The Memphis Pig Out offers off-site catering,table-ready for 40 to 400, with and without staff,from back yard barbeques to weddings to corporate functions. They specialize in parties, on site and
off—rehearsal dinners, graduations, christenings,communions, birthdays. A downstairs diningroom, with separate stereo system, can seat
up to 75 diners. Upstairs has ample space forspecial gatherings, including lunch parties
by special request.
Originally from Vermont, Mark arrived at theUniversity of Tennessee more than 40 yearsago to study restaurant management in graduate school. Restaurant management
and corporate dining services jobs followed graduation, untilhe and Connie bought their own restaurant in AtlanticHighlands and all that experience could be put into running a place of their own. “Barbeque was something we did for fun,” says Connie, “but we were famous for the parties that we threw.”
It took a while for some of their New Jersey customers to warmup to the idea of pulled pork, but their spare ribs and baby
back ribs were instant winners.When New Jersey Monthly madean undercover visit to the restaurantand gave it a rave review, it helped a lot.
While it’s clear that they take theircooking seriously, the Strassburgsbring a lot more to the table than an award-winning way withbarbeque. They’re well known inAtlantic Highlands as good neighbors and great friends. Eachyear for the past quarter century,Connie and Mark have hosted aluncheon for Atlantic Highlands
seventh graders as theyembark on their junior highyears at Henry Hudson
Regional High School.Mark and Connie
plan and produce the luncheon free of charge,
and enlist twelfth graders at Henry Hudson as kitchen
and wait staff for the event.
After all these years, Mark and Connie considerthemselves naturalized New Jerseyans and bona fide AtlanticHighlanders. Though they still keep a home in Memphis, their roots go deep here. When they first arrived in town, theydidn’t know anyone. The births, marriages and deaths thatappeared in the newspaper were simply names of strangers.Now, they are names of friends. It’s a familiarity that comesonly from belonging.
After 29 years, Connie says that she and Mark feel fully athome. And, the pulled pork? That’s not a stranger here in town any longer, either.

The highest point of landon the coast from Texas to Maine is in Highlands (226 feet abovesea level.)
The first land sighted by millions of immigrants approachingAmerica was the hills of Highlands.
Giovanni da Verrazano ofFlorence was the first Europeanexplorer to describe in 1524 the geography of the Highlands.
In September of 1609 HenryHudson made extensive explo-rations of the Highlands area,climbed the Highlands hills, andtraded with the NavesinkLenape Indians. His crewman,John Colman, was the firstEuropean to die in the new worldof America and was buried onSandy Hook.
The first European settlement inHighlands was in 1678 whenRichard Hartshorne built
his home at Portland on theHighlands peninsula.
On April 12, 1782 revolutionarywar Patriot Capt. JoshuaHuddy was hanged unjustlyby loyalists forces in Highlandsnear Huddy Park, touching off a major international incident.
After the Battle of Monmouth, theBritish army under GeneralClinton camped in and aroundthe Highlands awaiting a crossing
to safety and evacuation to NewYork from the loyalist strongholdon Sandy Hook.
James Fennimore Cooperin 1830 used the hills of Highlandsas the settling for his novel, The Water Witch.
The Twin Lights, built inHighlands in 1862, was the firstlighthouse to use kerosene, electricity, and the French Fresnellens to reach out some 22 miles
at sea. It was the site ofGuglielmo Marconi's first practical radio demonstration inAmerica in 1899 and the site ofAmerica's first radar experimentsin the mid 1930s.
Gertrude Ederle, the firstwoman to swim the EnglishChannel in 1926, spent her summers in Highlands where shetrained in the challenging currentsbeneath the Highlands bridge.

A WALK ONFAIR HAVEN’S
WILD SIDEby CORT SMITH

ust off the north side of Ridge Road lays a 77.43-acre tract, once home to Lovett Nursery, and acquired by the borough in 1973. The eastern section is called the Fair Haven Fields Natural Area, a 45.5-acre space fronted by its own purposefully modest gravel parking lot andsignage. Finding the place seems obvious, but it’s easy to miss. The area blends into, well, itself.And that’s the point.
It’s not a dog run (a dog is the walker’s guest); it’s not an instruction area (but the observant canlearn a great deal); it’s not an arboretum (trees do live there, but so does much else); and it’s nota recreational area either (there are no swings, only trails).
So what is it?
Dick Fuller, a former engineer in Advanced Technologies at Bell Labs, serves as chairman of the Fair Haven Fields AdvisoryCommittee, a volunteer position he assumed in 2006. A near-daily visitor, he knows the Natural Area like his own back yard,two blocks away. Also on the committee are borough residents Barbara Bennett, Dave Bordelon, Dorris Moraller, Nancy Drake,Milt Anderson, Audrey Ingle, Jim Ingle, and Michele Loughran. All are active caring keepers.
Dick points to a sign off the lot that sums up the place and the Committee’s philosophy for its management: “The Nature Areatrails for us, the rest for nature.” Or put another way, by Dick’s wife, Judy: “Birds need a sanctuary, so do we.”
And that’s what the Nature Area is: a sanctuary, a haven, a peaceful quiet spot to meander at the pace of one’s choosing.“Generally this is really for walking the trails, for listening to birds, observing nature, cross country skiing during the winter, jogging,” Dick explains, waving his arm to indicate the list goes on before adding, “Tolerance, not restriction, is the byword.”
Here, trees, grass, and flowers aren’t confined to a land- and streetscape. Even trails—covered in a deep layer of what Dick calls“shred spread”—are not marked en route, though a map at the parking lot shows the location of, say, Holly Trail (392 ft. long),or Perimeter (4,202 ft.). The trails total 1.65 miles.
We’re strolling along one of them now. “There’s a mix of trees here, some planted by the nursery—probably that American holly over there, or that Oriental spruce,” Dick points out. “Others are from birds carrying seeds or whatever.” There’s probably 40 different species throughout. “And as you’ll see, we’ve been busy planting our own.” Some start life in the on-sitefenced-in tree nursery. Since 2009 plantings have included everything from Larch, American Sycamore, and Beach Plum to
shrubs such as Buttonbush and Chokeberry. The intentthese days is to plant native species; they’re best adapted to the natural ecosystems here and require theleast maintenance, he explains.
Up ahead, near an area of White pine—the result of aFair Haven grade school seedling project from the mid-1970s—is borough resident and Garden Club memberCassy Abel, walking her black lab, Onyx. “It’s nice to bein the woods, around nature,” she says. “It’s kept upnicely, the town does a good job, and I know it’s noteasy, with all the invasives…”
One of the biggest challenges—damage from Hurricane Sandy not withstanding—comes from these
so-called invasives. “They can causean interesting forest to become a massof vines; a meadow, a field of weeds,”Dick notes. The land lay mostlyuntouched until 1987, when a pine
grove and flowers in Morallers Meadow (see that parking lot map) were planted, and the parking lot and trails were built, atwhich time invasives were first addressed. Current invasive species include the herbaceous Japanese Knotweed and “woodies” like Multiflora Rose, introduced into the U.S. in the late 19th century for cattle fencing.
Maintenance and improvements at the Natural Area are a true community effort, Dick points out, involving volunteers, the Fair Haven Public Works Department, Boy Scouts (Eagle Scouts have built a number of low footbridges), backed by Community Appeal and federal stimulus monies, as well as tree donations from the state Fish and Wildlife.
It’s very quiet here, and clean—not so much the result of people picking up after others, but of those others not tossing trash inthe first place. Over there is an old, hockey-rink-shaped irrigation pond that was dedicated to coastal conservationist Dery (Derickson) Bennett, just after his death in 2009. A longtime resident and former American Littoral Society executive director, Dery (along with Dick Moraller and Jim Ingle) was instrumental in securing this Green Acre-oasis for the town. Forever.

Anthony (Tony) Balderose, the former executive chef at Balducci’s—the famous food lovers market in Manhattan—is bringing his love of good food home to his own community with the opening of Balderose Fine Foods (BFF) on the bustling corner of Fair Haven Road and River Road. After months of planning, Tony and his partners—Bill and Kathy Dodge, Marc and Laura Feaster, and Tony’s wife, Judy—are ready…and so is their brand new store.
BFF is a neighborhood food market of the highest order, offering an eclectic and wide-ranging variety of wholesome Tony-prepared foods for everyday take out—from a quick breakfast to a family meal—and catering for any occasion that, recently, included the Ranney School Spring Gala.
“The food won’t contain preservatives or anything you can’t pronounce,” Tony assures, a pledge that extends to the Kid’s Cornerwhere a variety of wholesome, kid-delicious meals are available for the younger set. “I want to make it easy for parents to havea healthy alternative,” says Tony, who has two sons.
It was through his own father that Tony discovered his love for cooking at a young age. Hours spent helping in the family kitchen grew into a passion that, eventually, led him to the Culinary Institute of America and a career change, from sales to stove-tops. After working in several of New Jersey’s top-rated restaurants, Tony headed for Manhattan and Balducci’s for over a decade, and then on to the Gourmet Garage, the famous retail food emporium.
But it was close to his home and family in Shrewsbury that he wanted to be. When the “ideal location” on Fair Haven’s busiestdowntown corner became available earlier this year, it was a BFF dream come true.
For Tony, enhancing each customer’s culinary experience is as important as bringing people together and being part of the community. Balderose Fine Foods is committed to making a positive impact in the area and working with organizations thatinclude City Harvest and Lunch Break in an effort to alleviate hunger in Monmouth County.
“Food is universal. It brings people together,” he says. “I want it to be a really welcoming atmosphere here.”

If every picture tells a story, why not a bottle of wine? Take Beach House #34, a Sauvignon Blanc Rutherford2011. As Anthony Faustini relates—and he should know,the wine is from his own Napa Valley winery and availableat The Tasting Room, his new Red Bank store—years back,he was at the famously romantic Castle Hill Inn in Newport,Rhode Island, with his girlfriend Michelle. There, in the inn’s beach house number 34, he proposed over a
chilled bottle of Sauvignon Blanc.He would later make thewine to commemoratetheir engagement. There’sanother one, a CabernetSauvignon called 1023.This was the time of daytheir daughter was born, in 2009.
Clearly, wine is very personalto Anthony and MichelleFaustini. “Each of our wineshas a little bit of us in it, and they’re all handcrafted,”Anthony explains. “We don’t doa new wine just to do a new wine, per se,” noting that they started out in 2005 as strictly a “Cabernetcompany” before carefully branchingout. Wine also is something theFaustinis are exceedingly passionateabout. It has them running a small-lotwinery in California.
“We’re bringing a little bit of NapaValley right into Red Bank,” saysAnthony of The Tasting Room at 43aBroad Street, a finely appointed 1,250square-foot space, managed byBrendan O’Neill. Here, visitors cansample flights (tastings of multipleFaustini-made wines) paired withcheese or chocolate, and purchasewines and various related accessoriesfrom local and Napa Valley merchants.Wines run from $35 to $125; featured
is a recently introduced “sub$30” Malbec Rose, exclusive toThe Tasting Room and “just intime for summer,” says Anthony.
Anthony, a computer engineerwith an MIS degree, handlesglobal service accounts for BigSwitch Networks in Palo Alto.Fortunately, New York is hisprime territory. Michelle hasbeen involved in sales at CiscoSystems for the past 14 years. Itwas she who encouragedAnthony to pursue his real passion. He gave her 30,000reasons why he could never ownhis own winery; she gave him30,000 reasons why he could.
