Hello 08037! After a sweltering summer, I’m ready for the feel of crisp air, flannels, the beauty of leaves changing color, and of course apple and pumpkin picking. And I am excited for you to check out our Fall edition magazine dedicated to the lifestyle and community of Hammonton.

We start our issue with Chimney Rustic Ales. Nestled on Horton Street, this charming brewery offers more than just distinctive brews; it provides a warm, inviting atmosphere perfect for relaxation. With its expert craftsmanship and variety of unique beers that cater to every palate, Chimney Rustic Ales is the ideal spot to enjoy good company and exceptional drinks. After a lifetime immersed in the brewing industry, Owner Dan Borrelli knew there was nothing else he’d rather do than open his own brewery. And the only place he had his sight set on was his hometown of Hammonton. “If you enjoy good beer” check out Chimney Rustic Ales on page 6.

Next we visit FourK Nutrition, which offers guilt-free protein shakes, energizing teas as well as waffles and mini donuts. For Maritza Coronel, having an Herbalife shake initially started as a way to lose weight after her first baby. But now the products for Maritza and her entire family have become a lifestyle. Today, Maritza and her husband Guillermo are owners of FourK Nutrition, which is named after their four boys. In January 2022 an opportunity came to open a nutrition club in downtown Hammonton and the couple jumped at the chance. Learn all about their story starting on page 12.

Also check out our Hammonton Happenings on page 22 for future community events, our highlight on the Hammonton Revitalization Corporation and what they are all about on page 10 and Summer in Review photos on page 18. All of this and more awaits on the pages ahead!

Enjoy!
