Farmers' Heritage Hike

Take a hike through time on our historic Homestead Farm to explore 150 years of New England’s farming stories at Jones Family Farms. Search for signs of the farm’s evolution from a sheep operation, to a dairy farm, lumber mill, and current use as a harvest-your own farm and winery. Learn how Shelton has changed over the past several centuries, and how this 7^th generation farm has changed with it. Enjoy scenic views, rambling stone walls, and a wide variety of plant and animal life on this special hike as part of our Best of Connecticut Weekend.
