County OKs Demarest Farms To Use Hillsdale Streets: Report

HILLSDALE, NJ — A new plan approved by the Bergen County Agriculture Development Board allows Demarest Farms customers to park on borough streets, according to a report on NorthJersey.com.

The farm's owners have three years to find enough off-site long-term parking to accommodate about 1,000 cars, according to the report. After that, customers will not be permitted to park on residential streets.

Street parking under the plan will be broken up into four zones that the farm and Hillsdale Police Department create, according to the report.

The overflow parking will be permitted in three zones at a time and the zones will rotate. In the plan's second year, overflow parking would only be permitted in two zones and in just one in the final year, according to the report.

Residents should check the Hillsdale Police Department’s social media channels and website every Thursday to see which parking zones will be utilized during the upcoming weeks, officials said.

Farm patrons should check the Demarest Farms Facebook page and website for timely information regarding locations and availability of parking.
