Ramsey Perfect Peach
Pie Contest set
The Ramsey Farmers Market will host the New Jersey
Council of Peaches’ first “Perfect Peach Pie Contest” on
Aug. 11. The Ramsey Farmers Market was chosen as one of
only two northern New Jersey markets to host the contest.
The second contest will be held in Jersey City Heights.
Pastry chef Michael Volpe, chef and owner of L’Arte
della Pasticceria, will be the judge on the local level. The
winner of the local contest will go on to submit his or her
pie for a chance at the grand prize: dinner and an overnight
stay for two in either Atlantic City or Cape May.
Official rules and contest forms are available at www.
ramseyfarmersmarket.org. Ramsey’s weekly market features a bounty of local
produce and products from over 35 vendors, and includes
organic and traditional fruits and vegetables, artisanal
breads and cheeses, gluten-free baked goods, granola, pre-
pared foods, local honey, organic maple syrup, homemade
jams, local wine, free trade coffee and teas, many varieties
of hummus, free range eggs, and much more. Each market
day includes music, free children’s crafts, chef demos, and
a surprise featured vendor.
The Ramsey Farmers Market will be open Sundays
from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Ramsey Main Street train sta-
tion parking lot through Nov. 24. For more information,
call (201) 675-6866.
Driver hospitalized after collision
A collision on Route 17 South near Lake Street in Upper Saddle River sent the driver of an Audi sedan to a local hospital by
ambulance after his vehicle rolled over when it collided with a tractor trailer. Traffic on Route 17 was slowed in both directions
as emergency personnel from Ramsey and Upper Saddle River worked at the scene. Paramedics from The Valley Hospital
also responded. The Audi was removed by flatbed tow truck. (Photo courtesy of Boyd A. Loving.)
