About This Farm
Buell's Orchard at Eastford is picking two crops right now and runs one of the longest picking seasons in eastern Connecticut.
What You Can Pick
- Peaches and blueberries - "Pick your own peaches and blueberries now available!"
- Strawberries - June
- Apples - autumn
- Pumpkins - autumn
Good to Know
Summer hours are Monday 8am to 7pm, Tuesday to Friday 8am to 5pm, Saturday 8am to 3pm, closed Sunday. The Monday evening is unusual and useful.
The farm links to a news piece in which co-owner Jeff Sandness "talks about climate changes and how farmers are working to deal with it", which is a more candid thing to put on a farm website than most manage.
Pro tip: closed Sunday and open until seven on Monday is the reverse of every other orchard in the region. If weekends are impossible, Buell's is the one farm here built for a Monday evening after work.
