One of Northern New Jersey’s most charming downtown areas is located in Rutherford, the borough of trees. Located just 20 minutes from NYC, Rutherford is a most desirable location, offering a wide range of amenities to residents and visitors alike.

One of Rutherford’s most notable distinctions is it’s flourishing culinary scene. Restaurants and cafes boasting an array of international cuisines, while local wine and liquor stores complete the dining experience. Home for over 30 years to JGFT co-founder Janis Borroto, Rutherford was the most natural selection for the Jersey Girls’ first tour expansion destination.
