B&B Farms is a farm and ice cream shop that opened in West Haven, Connecticut in 1998. It was…read morefounded by husband and wife Robert & Barbara Newkirk. The 12-acre location has actually been a farm since the 1940s, but the Newkirk Family didn't take over until decades later. Three years after opening the new farm, the Newkirks moved onto the property when they realized that they spent more time there than at their previous home down the street. One of the main crops on the farm is their large selection of flowers. They also grow pumpkins and various squash and gourds for the Autumn. In addition to crops, there is also an ice cream shop on the property that carries over 22 flavors of ice cream (supplied by Buck's French Ice Creams from the neighboring town of Milford). The farm hosts children's parties in their big red barn and also offer tractor-drawn hayrides, pony rides, and even horse-drawn sleigh rides during the Holiday season. Since 2014, the Newkirks' son Tyler has his own craft shop on the property. The gift shop carries a variety of handmade crafts along with ​an abundance of unique decor, candles, soaps, cards, house plants, antiques, etc. In addition to Newkirk's own crafts, the shop also carries the work of many other local crafters. The shop also provides florist and decorating services. My family and I visited B&B Farms for the first time recently. My son loved all of the animals on the property, which included goats, donkeys, and horses. They had a nice selection of pumpkins and decorative gourds, as well as beautiful mums. The craft shop had some really cool Autumn and Halloween decorations on displays. The ice cream shop had an extensive selection of flavors. I ordered a cup with Pumpkin and Apple Pie ice cream, my wife ordered a cup with Pumpkin and 'Swamp' (Vanilla malt ice cream, caramel, crushed Oreos, chocolate chips, M&Ms and malted milkballs), and our son had a cup of Vanilla. We were all very happy with our choices! We enjoyed our time at B&B Farms and we look forward to returning in the future.

I must have been the most excited adult to enter the place that day! My boyfriend and I were…read morecruising around Connecticut, when I found out in a travel book about CT - we were close to the PEZ visitor's center! Not knowing what a PEZ is (!!!!!), he reluctantly drove us there. And let me tell you I think he had as much fun as I did, but he will never admit it haha. The tickets are more or less $5 - they give you a $2 store credit and a lanyards. When you enter there is a GIANT PEZ, when you push a button it "dispenses" a PEZ! You get to walk around and see all the different PEZ dispensers made over the years! Two walls have entire history of PEZs. Also you can take a bingo card, on which you need to find years the dispenser was launched for different characters. That is where my boyfriend got REALLY invested. He was looking around for the characters on our bingo card, telling me about different children shows etc. Second floor featured a party room, pictures of PEZ related events, PEZ outfits, motorcycle, PEZ based on Asian shows and signed PEZs by famous people. My favorite was KISS. First floor also featured a factory (you can see machines through the windows) and a gift shop. My boyfriend and I both choose dispensers ($3) for ourselves and he chose one for his kid and I choose one for my little sister. We purchased $6 buckets and filled them with different flavors of PEZ candy. There was PEZ lego like puzzle sets ($5) As a pin collector (i think $4-6) - there was 4 different pins to choose from. I had to have one! Also when you get bingo you get to spin the wheel and get a free dispenser! As a 30 year old adult I had SO MUCH fun learning about the candy I loved for almost 20 years! My boyfriend cannot stop eating the candy now too! Haha PEZ gained a new fan!

They charge $5 but you get back $2 to spend in the store. This is a very colorful place with thousands of pez dispensers displayed throughout in a well designed and informative manner. They also tell the history of this product and company with plenty of memorabilia. During the week you can watch the factory operate but on weekends they have a well made video that explains the manufacturing process. Of course about 20% of the space is dedicated to a retail shop but that is fun in itself. Definitely worth a stop for an hour.

Saw the sign for the Pez museum while we were driving around on the first full day of our trip to…read moreConnecticut. Didn't plan on coming here, but glad that we did. The visitor center is located adjacent to the Pez Factory in Orange, CT, being the sole manufacturer for the Pez candy (not the dispenser) for the United States since 1973. Thus most of the large parking lot is filled employee cars, but off to the side is the visitor center along with an ample parking area. Admission is $5 per person, with the remark that $2 of it could be used as credit to purchase anything in the company store. Products for sale are intermingled with antique Pez dispensers, and consists of two stories. Most of the time is spent glancing at dispensers behind glass. To encourage this, a game sheet was given to every entrant: The Close Up Hunt. The goal was to identify the eight close up views of different dispensers, found throughout the museum: basically a scavenger hunt. My wife and I were able to finish it (thanks to her) and the prize was a spin on the prize wheel. I got the emoji Pez while she got the My Little Pony. My wife likes Pez candy (a lot more than the dispensers), so our obvious choice was to buy a self-service bucket of pez candy for $6.99. There were eleven flavors to choose from, and I had fun filling the bucket (and didn't spill any!). The cashier let us know that there was a minimum purchase of $5 for a credit card charge, so ended up choosing a Pikachu dispenser to reach that amount One game was to find and identify 8 different Pez dispensers in the display cases. There were two floors. We were able to identify all of them, and as a prize got to spin a little wheel. I got the emoji Pez dispenser and Odette got the my little pony one. Each $5 ticket gives $2 in credit which we used to buy a bucket of candies. You have to spend at least $5 to use credit card, so bought a Pez dispenser of Pikachu ($2.49) as well. The entire stay was about an hour. The employees are behind transparent glass so we can see them and they us. It's the main packaging area. Guessing the actual making of the candy isn't that fun to watch, and the dispensers are made overseas.

My goals for the day were. 1. Buy a pumpkin, 2. Pet a goat. So with the added bonus of ice cream, I…read moreheaded to B&B flower farm, which is near where I work. There were a few cars in the lot and not a ton of people on a Friday early afternoon. They had a lot of plants and produce around, and a huge area with pumpkins that they have priced by the pound. I quickly found a pumpkin the idea size for me, and a woman working there quickly rung me up (all cash only here!). I let her know I'd also be grabbing ice cream so we both walked to the ice cream area and I grabbed a salted caramel in a cone, about $6. There were some interesting flavors I wasn't sure of, and she happily explained. There's numerous benches around so I finished up around there, and then went and said hi to some of the farm animals milling about. Cute vibes, good ice cream! I believe they close the ice cream shop for the season at the end of October, so I'll try to be back before then!
