Establishes "Jersey Vines Program" in Department of Agriculture.
This bill establishes the "Jersey Vines Program" within New Jersey's Department of Agriculture to promote wine produced in the state using locally grown ingredients. It directly affects wineries and farm wineries licensed in New Jersey that cultivate grapes, fruits, or other ingredients within the state. The program will increase consumer awareness through advertising campaigns, share information about local wine varieties and producers, and create a "Jersey Vines" labeling system similar to the existing "Jersey Fresh" program. The Department of Agriculture must develop rules to implement these provisions, with the program taking effect immediately.
