If you're looking to step into a living slice of Vernon history and community, is your perfect pick-your-own-it moment. Established in 1878 and lovingly preserved as the last historic family-run farm in town, it's part farm stand, part outdoor classroom, and all heart.
From mid‑June to mid‑October, their seasonal Farm Stand overflows with CT‑grown goods—fresh eggs, veggies from Mon Soleil Garden, berries, LuAnn’s baked treats, kettle corn, Royal ice cream sandwiches, pickles, jams, maple syrup, and honey—all produced by local growers or the farm itself.
But Strong Family Farm is more than just a shopping stop. It's a living classroom offering kids camps, Civil War day programs, backyard chicken workshops, Sunday Fun‑Days with live animals, a chicken-themed 5K run, and the seasonal Harvest Festival with scarecrow contests and farm tours. Perfect for families, learners of all ages, or anyone who wants that hands-on farm experience.
Whether you're hunting for heirloom produce or planning a farm‑fresh memory with the kiddos, Strong Family Farm delivers CT-grown goodness and real community spirit in one beautiful slice of Vernon!
