Hunterdon County (NJ) Shines as New Jersey's Film Scene Gains Major Momentum
FLEMINGTON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun 12, 2025-- Lights, camera… Hunterdon County! This summer, Hunterdon County takes center stage in two major film releases, solidifying its rising status as one of New Jersey's - and among the country's most film-friendly destinations. On Friday, June 13, Echo Valley, starring Julianne Moore and Sydney Sweeney, debuted on Apple TV+. The film was shot almost entirely in Hunterdon County, with cast and crew praising the area's scenic beauty and, more importantly, its exceptional support for production teams. Plum Broke Farm in Delaware Township served as the film's main location while other scenes were shot in Lambertville. The crew stayed at the Chimney Hill Estate Inn and dined at Seargentsville Inn. On Wednesday, July 25, the highly anticipated Happy Gilmore 2 – the sequel to the blockbuster cult classic – will premiere on Netflix. With a dedicated film commission and promotional website housed within the Department of Economic Development & Tourism, Hunterdon County has laid the groundwork for sustainable entertainment industry growth. These high-profile projects are the result of years of thoughtful investment by Hunterdon County to position itself as a top-tier filming location. Likewise, officials say both of these productions have had a strong and lasting economic impact on the area. Clinton Mayor Janice Kovach, who also serves on the New Jersey State Film Commission, is the film commission chair and stated that the county has also created sizzle reels, hosted site tours for location scouts, and actively promoted its unique blend of small-town charm and production readiness. County commissioners say they'll continue to support the push. 'From permitting to on-the-ground logistics, Hunterdon County delivered,' commented Commissioner John Lanza, 'From day one, our message to filmmakers has been clear: if you want to shoot in Hunterdon County, we'll make it work – and make it seamless.' We are drafting a wish list of content inclusions that are ideal and would like to offset the cost with the rooms trade. Once we can place a dollar value on the rooms/F&B credit, I'll supply our list of content items for them to place value on. The result is an increasingly busy production calendar, with Hunterdon County not just making cameos but playing lead roles. The County is on track to join Clinton and several other municipalities in earning the NJ Film Ready certification. As New Jersey's film industry continues to boom – at one point recently leading the nation in total production – Hunterdon County is not only keeping pace, it's setting a tone: creative, cooperative, and open for filming. Past film projects in the county include I Am Legend, As Good As It Gets, and Turbulence. With scenic backdrops ranging from rolling farmland to picturesque main streets, and a local team known for making production smooth and seamless, it's no surprise the spotlight is turning to Hunterdon County. For filmmakers seeking their next perfect scene, this county is ready for action.

Hunterdon County makes major advancement in flood control project
Hunterdon County has been awarded an $880,200 grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to implement Phase II of its Hazard Mitigation Flood Warning System. The funding was formally accepted by the Board of County Commissioners during its June 3 meeting, ensuring the project is incorporated into the county's 2025 budget. The investment represents a major advancement in the county's ongoing efforts to improve flood preparedness and safeguard residents. "Hunterdon County has faced devastating flooding events that have taken a toll on lives and infrastructure. This FEMA grant enables us to expand our flood warning system, equipping us with real-time alerts that will strengthen emergency response efforts and help reduce future risks,' stated Commissioner Director John E. Lanza. More: FEMA funding will allow Hunterdon County to install floodgates The grant stems from concerns raised by the county's Department of Public Safety, Division of Emergency Management, and was secured through FEMA's Hazard Mitigation Program, in partnership with the New Jersey Office of Emergency Management (NJOEM). The project is divided into two phases: Phase I partnered with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to collect and analyze rainfall and flood data from the Neshanic River and other key areas. This data will enhance flood warning systems used by local and county officials to anticipate and prepare for flood-related emergencies. Phase II, supported by this new round of funding, focuses on infrastructure enhancements ― including the installation of floodgate systems at key flood-prone locations. One major installation site includes the intersection of County Route 514 and Reaville Road near the Neshanic River. These gates will be closed during flood conditions to restrict traffic and protect motorists from dangerous floodwaters. 'By integrating USGS stream gauges, rainfall sensors, and real-time hydrometric data, Hunterdon County is taking a proactive stance in flood readiness," Lanza stated. "Phase II will further enhance our capabilities, providing traffic restricting gate systems in areas prone to repetitive flooding over the last two decades. It also lays the groundwork for future public safety and disaster resilience investments.'

Pilot killed in fiery plane crash in New Jersey
The pilot of a small plane was killed when his aircraft went down in New Jersey and then caught on fire, according to officials. The plane fell from the sky as it was flying over Hunterdon County late Friday afternoon, the Quakertown Fire Department said in a statement. A range of first responders, including firefighters, paramedics and troopers from the New Jersey State Police, descended on the densely wooded area to search for the downed aircraft. They eventually found it engulfed in flames, near Airport Road and Mechlin Corner Road in Alexandria Township, a short distance from the Alexandria Field Airport. The surrounding area was also ablaze when crews arrived. Firefighters were able to quickly contain the fire, but the pilot of the plane was subsequently found dead inside the aircraft. 'Our thoughts and prayers are with those impacted by this tragedy,' the fire department said, referring all future questions regarding the incident to state police. An Alexandria Field Airport official told WFMZ the pilot, who has not yet been identified, was the only one in the plane. Few other details have been provided about the crash, including what may have caused it. It's destination was also unclear. The Federal Aviation Administration said it was investigating.
