Check out The Farmington
Valley!
When we say "The Farmington Valley", generally
that means Avon, Simsbury and Farmington, those being the large "core"
towns. We've been referred to as bedroom communities for Hartford,
Connecticut's capital city, only 20 minutes away. These towns have character
and charm...lots of it, with plenty of historical sites. We have bed and
breakfasts, inns, restaurants that were once railroad stations, mills or
taverns, farms that are still farms and ones that are now other things, like
recreation areas, polo grounds, camps or golf courses, even a vineyard! And
yes, a river runs through it all: the Farmington River, which is our most
precious resource, providing 100% of the drinking water for the Greater
Hartford area, and it's the only river in Connecticut to receive the federal
Wildlife and Scenic designation. A trail runs through it all, too! The
Farmington Valley Greenway and River Trail: a 25 mile multi-use trail designed
for walking, jogging, biking, rollerblading and is wheelchair accessible,
passing through five towns and connecting to several miles of other hiking and
biking trails!
The weather? Well, as Mark Twain put it
(having resided in the Hartford area), if you don't like the weather, just wait
a minute! All four seasons occur with great splendor. With each season comes
plenty of excitement and anticipation for the traditions that take place
connected to each. We are "so VERY New England"!
 So much goes on here, it's difficult to put it
into a simple paragraph or two! You can browse historic sites; hike and
bike along the river; canoe, kayak, go tubing, swim, fish; go hot air
ballooning; camping; dine riverside; go to a play; the symphony outdoors; go
horseback riding; cross-country or downhill skiing, or skating; take a horse
drawn sleigh ride; golf; tennis; the list is endless! We have soccer, hockey,
football, lacrosse, little league, swim teams, a full time training facility
for world class figure skaters, white water good enough to host national canoe
and kayak competitions, country clubs and PGA golf courses; Septemberfest (we
can't wait for October!), a lobster fest, the Talcott Mountain Music Festival,
Firemen's Carnivals, locally made ice cream (it's possibly the best in the
world!), local honey and maple syrup, fresh produce that you can pick yourself.
This is the home of the second largest historical center in Connecticut (the
Phelps Homestead in Simsbury), the Farmington Valley Arts Center, The Talcott
Mountain Science Center, Antiques Weekends, Poetry Festivals, the biggest tree
in Connecticut, the first state prison in the nation (now an historical site)
and yes, a commercial center that will satisfy even the most discriminating of
shoppers with trendy boutiques, restaurants and cafes, movie theaters, at
places such as the new Shoppes at Farmington Valley, Simsbury Commons, Avon
Marketplace, Riverdale Farms, and the Westfarms Mall.
Of course, along with all of our wonderful
quaint New England charm and character, we have state of the art health,
wellness and fitness facilities; computer and technology services, professional
and financial services and so much more.
It's easy to see why the Farmington Valley is a
wonderful place to live and raise a family. Along with all of our fabulous
recreational activities, the schools are the best in the country! Our schools
are top notch, award winning schools with over 90% of students going on to
higher education. Check out my School
Information page to get the scoop on our excellent schools.
