Come along with Ocean County Moms as we “fall in love with fall”. As the nights start to drift in quicker, the breeze blowing, and crisper days arrive we have the BEST Fall Guide for you! We have local fairs and festivals, unique fall experiences, pumpkin picking, farms, farmers markets and so much more!
We are so excited to release our Fall Guide to you, which is sponsored by The Little Point Bookshop!
The Little Point Bookshop was established in 2019, we have really loved sharing our love of reading and books with the community! We are small, but have something for everyone, and can help all customers discover their next favorite book. We host private books clubs, we have a brand-new podcast where we discuss books that have made a difference in our lives, and we can even host literary themed birthday parties! We want not only to be a business in the town, but we want to be part of the town: a place where locals and summer visitors will want to return too often.
