Brookside lies in a gentle dip of the land, where the Morristown and Western Railway once traced its path, now a ghost of a line swallowed by the green. It lies 4.7 miles south-south-east of Randolph, NJ (from Randolph, NJ: bearing 166°T), and is situated 9.5 miles east-south-east of Mount Olive. The terrain here is a thoughtful mix of rolling hills, softened by the passage of seasons, and the occasional sharp rise that catches the afternoon sun. Maple and oak trees, stout and steadfast, anchor the landscape, their leaves a rustling conversation with the breeze, and in the hollows, the air hangs cool and damp, carrying the scent of loam and decaying wood. The Ramapo River, a ribbon of muted silver, threads its way through the periphery, its currents carrying the quiet murmur of the land. The early settlers of Brookside were drawn by the fertile soil and the promise of sustenance, their endeavors shaping the quiet agricultural character that still echoes here. Though the days of large-scale farming have largely receded, the memory of it lingers in the wide fields and the sturdy, unpretentious farmhouses that dot the countryside. The local economy now hums with a different tune, a blend of small businesses serving the immediate needs of residents and a quiet influx of those seeking the tranquility Brookside offers. It’s a place where history isn't shouted from rooftops but whispered in the enduring stone walls and the well-worn paths that lead through the woods, a subtle testament to lives lived with purpose and a deep connection to the land.
