Bakerwoods Farm

Bakerwoods is a wonderful smaller sized working family farm with a plethora of animals on site.  You might see free range fowl, goats, sheep, cows, horses, rabbits, turtles, llamas, and four dogs. Located in North Eastern Connecticut’s “Quiet corner”, it is a peaceful location nestled in the trees complete with a small lake and marsh area.

Down by the lake is a great place for a tea party on the gazebo (please call ahead to schedule).Children enjoy the I-Spy Gnome trail, which winds through the woods around the lake. For adults there is the Ancient Path Trail for quiet walks or bring the children (our children enjoy them both), but the Gnome trail is much more fun! There is a food wagon on site with family friendly pricing, and very good food.  You can enjoy locally produced Hosmer Mountain soda with your meal. Fishing is allowed, catch and release only.  They often host fishing contests and small concerts on premises.

You can enjoy  feeding  the animals, so bring some quarters to make your children even happier. We have visited Baker’s Woods numerous times, it is a great place to unwind and enjoy your family! A great place to visit in any season, so if you are in the area be sure to drop in and say hello to Nancy and Al, the owners and workers of Baker’s Woods Farm.
