Colts Neck, the Monmouth County township known by that
name only since 1962, has witnessed a rapid pace of change
in its recent past. The once-rural community has been adapting
to suburbanization but longtime residents yearn to preserve
memories of the municipality's heritage, and in particular,
recollections of two well-known communities.
Colts Neck's North American Phalanx was one of America's
best-known, nineteenth-century cooperative communities,
and as such has garnered the interest of philosophers and social
scientists. In a completely different historical vein, Colts Neck
embraces Scobeyville, widely known as the home of Laird's.
Synonymous with New Jersey distilling, Laird's has produced the
Apple Jack beverage for many years.
