How the Garden State Circle works

Tiffany and Jake Slowinski publish Garden State Circle.

What the Circle is

The Garden State Circle is a group of local businesses we work with and write about. Membership is a paid service: we verify each member’s information before it prints, and we publish features about them as part of that service.

What we verify

Before anything about a member prints, we check the business’s name, address and phone, its licence where the trade has one, and its hours and prices as published.

What we publish

Features about members come from an interview with the business, written by our editors. The business reads the draft for facts. The editor holds the pen and the final wording. Prices and policies in a feature are as of the interview date.

What we do not do

No business pays to be placed on a guide or ranked. Guides list what you would use.

When something we print is corrected, you will find it on Corrections & Updates.
