HOBOKEN — The annual heirloom tomato festival at the Hoboken Historical Museum, scheduled for Aug. 28, has been canceled due to an illness in the family of the farmers.
The Museum encourages Hobokenites to shop for locally grown tomatoes and other fresh produce at the city’s two farmers markets: uptown by the Museum at 13th and Hudson streets on Thursdays from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m., or downtown by the CVS at Washington and Newark streets. on Tuesdays, also between 3 p.m. and 7 p.m.
However, there is still a heirloom garlic festival scheduled for Oct. 16, and the museum has a busy fall schedule of events, its organizers say. You can ‘ketchup’ at hobokenmuseum.org.
