I pass by the Ox Hollow Farm Stand, located on RT202, in Bantam, CT four times a week. I'll stop…read morefor produce in season, my wife loves their tomatoes. But it seems like they specialize in farm raised meats, they have a good amount in the several freezers found inside this little farm stand. Prices are typically 3X what you would pay for similar types of meat in the supermarket, but that's standard when you're buying quality, Farm fresh meats. A solid 4 Star rating for this wonderful Connecticut Farm stand.

We are happy every time we pass this way along Rt. 202 and stop at Ox Hollow. They consistently…read moreoffer a welcome variety of fresh, locally grown produce (always good tomatoes), and they sell it at what seems to us as fair pricing. (We rate them much higher for quality and lower in pricing than the nearby Tara Farms setup.) This time of year they've got a lot of pumpkins for sale, but then so does everyone else, of course. The folks working here have always been pleasant too deal with. They stay open later in the season than we'd expect, but that's only a good thing!

We've had corn from other local farm stands, but I'm happy I finally got to support farmers in my own town! They had a much larger selection than I expected, with fruits & veggies from other loc farms, as well as their own. I was also pleasantly surprised to see they take credit cards, which is great! I'll be stopping here a lot more often & can't wait to get flowers next spring!

The museum captures…read morefarm life from 1854 which is amazing and serves to understand how life arrived at where it is today. There is also a Quinnipiac native American museum building colocated on the site which capsulizes native American life in CT from over 12,000 years ago just after the glaciers receded. It takes a moment to grasp the significance of the timeline, but there are a number of stone tools and spear/arrow heads dating back 12,000 years! Incredible! There are over a dozen specialty buildings on the site representing an enterprise of some scale. The docent revealed very interesting information regarding the State of CT's relationship with the South and its slaveholding situation and relatively late abolition of slavery. Excellent museum not adequately advertised.

I ordered 2 11# turkeys and picked them up a few days later. For Thanksgiving I smoked one and roasted the other. They were both outstanding, some of the juiciest, tenderest turkeys I've ever cooked. The staff was friendly and service was prompt. I hear it gets really busy in the week of Thanksgiving so you should plan ahead.

You can pack a picnic and enjoy a peaceful evening surrounded by nature, with an incredible view of rolling hills. As the sun begins to set, the landscape covered in golden light, and if you walk to the top of the hill, you can catch a glimpse of Hartford twinkling in the distance. The combination of beautiful flowers and the tranquil atmosphere makes it the perfect spot to relax and unwind in one of their colorful adirondack chairs. The owners are friendly and helpful. Finally pricing is fair with two sizes- small and large mason jars. If you're looking for a unique and peaceful escape, this place is a must-visit. The views alone are worth the trip, but the added bonus of the flowers and the sunset make it truly magical.
