Grapes 'N Barrels

 

Have you always wanted to learn how to make your own wine? Grapes 'N Barrels is a private-label winemaking location in Middlesex County and offers the chance to make your very own wine! Create red, white, and blended wines from grapes grown in California, Chile, and Italy. Grapes 'N Barrels specializes in group, corporate, and special occasion events. You might want to spend the night at a nearby hotel or bed and breakfast if you choose this option!


New Jersey BotanicalGarden


If you have a deep love of all things related to flowers, plants, and gardening, you must take a road trip to the New Jersey Botanical Gardens in Ringwood. A Garden State gem that has been enjoyed for almost 100 years, it remains a special location for amateur and professional horticulturists alike. This 96-acre garden includes a historic manor, adjacent state park for picnics and biking and hiking trails, and much more.


Atco Dragway


If a long, NJ-themed road trip is on the menu, head south to Atco Dragway in Atco, another favorite on the list of top five road trips around South Brunswick, NJ. This family-friendly facility opened in the 1960s during the height of drag racing's popularity and remains a staple of the area. Come hear the roar of many engines, with cars reaching speeds of 200 miles per hour! There's much in the way of concessions, as well as an arcade. In other words, the Atco Dragway is a wonderful Sunday afternoon option!
