Scarlet Reserve Room

We are independently owned, family-driven, and deeply rooted in the Monmouth County cannabis community — not backed by multi-state operators or corporate investors. Our mission is to keep cannabis culture alive in New Jersey while providing safe, premium, and compliant cannabis products to local customers.

For anyone who believes in second chances and social equity in the New Jersey cannabis market, our journey shows it’s possible — even when the odds feel stacked against you. We’re proud to lead by example and build a trusted Englishtown and Monmouth County dispensary for the next generation of cannabis consumers and entrepreneurs.

Our journey proves that redemption and determination can break barriers. Once facing charges for the very plant now fueling an industry, our founder rebuilt from the ground up — earning degrees, mastering business, and creating safe, trusted spaces for cannabis and wellness. Today, Scarlet Reserve Room stands proudly as an independently owned, legacy-to-legal Englishtown dispensary, keeping culture alive and proving second chances matter.

Bruster’s Real Ice Cream

Oceanport, NJ – June 2026 – Ice cream lovers in Monmouth County have a new reason to celebrate: Bruster's Real Ice Cream is opening at the Riverwalk Center at Fort Monmouth, marking the beloved brand's first-ever location at the Jersey Shore.

For more than 35 years, Bruster's has built a loyal following by doing things differently. Guided by its signature "Cow to Cone" philosophy, Bruster's starts with fresh dairy sourced from its family dairy farm in Titusville, Pennsylvania, and transforms it into premium ice cream made fresh in each store every day. Crafted in small batches using a slow kettle process, Bruster's ice cream delivers the rich, creamy texture and exceptional flavor that fans have come to love.

Guests can enjoy a fun, family-friendly experience featuring more than 24 flavors available daily from a menu of over 150 recipes. From timeless favorites to imaginative creations packed with chocolate chunks, swirls, nuts, candies, and cookies, every visit offers something new to discover. Popular flavors include Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip, Jamaican Me Crazy, and Cotton Candy Explosion, a colorful favorite bursting with candy pieces and popping candy.

In addition to its premium ice cream, Bruster's offers freshly baked waffle cones and waffle bowls, handcrafted sundaes, milkshakes, freezes, blasts, vegan oat milk flavors, no-sugar-added options, and the fan-favorite Free Doggie Sundaes.

Bruster's has more than 200 locations nationwide and has been recognized by Entrepreneur Magazine as one of the nation's top franchise brands. The Oceanport location will be the first to bring this beloved ice cream destination to the Jersey Shore.

More than just an ice cream shop, Bruster's Oceanport plans to become an active part of the community through school fundraisers, local sponsorships, and community events, creating connections and memories one scoop at a time.

Rumson and Fair Haven Listing Agent | Concierge Real Estate to Maximize Your Home Value

If you’re thinking about selling your home in Rumson or Fair Haven, strategy matters.

Northern Monmouth County buyers move quickly — and they pay a premium for homes that feel updated, well-maintained, and truly move-in ready. The right preparation directly impacts your sale price, days on market, and negotiating power.

As a top local Rumson and Fair Haven listing agent, I offer a concierge real estate approach designed to maximize your home’s value before it ever hits the MLS.

That means:

Coordinating clean-outs (basements, attics, garages)

Managing repairs and smart cosmetic updates

Overseeing vendor timelines

Strategic staging designed to attract stronger offers

We focus on improvements that increase your net profit — not random renovations. If a kitchen refresh, bathroom update, lighting upgrade, or exterior improvement is likely to deliver a return in this market, I’ll guide the strategy and manage the process.

If it won’t add value? We skip it.

You won’t be handed a checklist and left to figure it out. You’ll get a clear, customized plan for selling your home in Rumson, Fair Haven, or Northern Monmouth County — including what to do, what to avoid, projected costs, and expected return.

You make the key decisions.
I handle the details.

If you’re researching how to sell your home in Rumson or Fair Haven, let’s start with a smart plan designed to protect and maximize your home value.
