S 1221 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Makes pilot program for special occasion events at wineries on preserved farmland permanent program.

This bill makes permanent a program allowing wineries on preserved farmland to host special events like weddings or festivals. It requires these events to generate less than 50% of a winery's annual income and prioritize using the winery's agricultural products. Events must follow local noise, waste, and safety rules, occur on permitted days/structures, and avoid harming adjacent properties. The bill also replaces temporary reporting requirements with ongoing biennial reviews to assess the program's impact.
