Fall Fun at Connecticut Farms and Orchards

We are so lucky to live in a state with an abundance of farms and orchards.  Throughout the year, these family friendly destinations provide us with fresh fruit, vegetables, dairy products and more.  Then, in the fall, many of them open up their properties to celebrate the season with hayrides, pumpkin patches, corn mazes and more.

Apple Picking at Belltown Hill Orchards

Cut to the chase. Take me to the Momsense. A few months ago you may remember my post on PYO peaches at Belltown Hill Orchards in Glastonbury, Connecticut. Well, on that visit I also got a tip that apple picking season would come early this year. And indeed it has. So two weekends ago we […]

Festive, fun, and fast! Pine cone crafts to welcome the holiday season.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve been bringing you some posts on great places to get outside and walk with the kiddos (like Westmoor Park, Elizabeth Park, and the West Hartford Reservoir) before we all have to hibernate for the cold winter months. And nothing necessitates a walk more than that four-hour Thanksgiving feast, right? Now, […]
