“Don’t know how else to find this out. If you’ve been apple picking at Lyman in the past week, are the apples good? Are they too small or more full size? We usually go as a family every year in mid to end of October, but want to go this weekend.”
“River Ridge is our favorite local farm. I love their personally picked selection of items and everyone from the farm is so nice and knowledgable. Truly a gem, also look into their CSA!”
“Fabulous assortment of gift ideas.Wonderful customer service. Jan called to go over my order so it would be correct. Absolutely beautiful chocolate strawberries.”
“We had a great time this afternoon at Farmer Wayne’s beautiful orchard picking McIntosh, Calhoun, Liberty, and Cortland apples! We brought our five children along- they were delighted by the easy to reach apples and by the chestnuts scattering the ground. We filled a 20 pound bag with apples, and also went home with organic potatoes (that Wayne had dug up moments before), eggplant, garlic and seed garlic, onions and apple cider. He also had pear cider that he had pressed yesterday, but we were out of money at that point! We are truly thankful to find an organic farm like this one in Connecticut that cares about the health of its customers and of the soil, rather than just making a buck. They have great prices and we are so happy to buy as much as we can from them! God bless High Hill Orchard!”
“We stopped in yesterday for the first time. We needed a couple of plants and we were really impressed. They have a lot of plants and flowers and a nice variety. Everything is so healthy!! The plants are well organized so it’s easy to find what you’re looking for. Vivian helped us find the right plants for the conditions that they will be in. Besides plants and flowers they have both bulk and bagged mulch. They also have a farm stand. It’s easy to get to and plenty of parking. Will definitely be back.”
“Very knowledgeable staff. Needed a new place for bulk peppers and tomatoes. Very good pricing and friendly environment. Here's a photo of the hot sauce I made with some of their italian long hots.”
“Join their CSA this year. So far so good. They allow for customization of boxes, which is in theory. Really nice, but so far everything that I've wanted to swap for has been not available. And the stuff in the farm store is kind of expensive, and one of the workers was carrying around a baby chick, which is adorable and I thought was really cute when I was there, but then on my drive home I was like and she's got this live animal around all of this fresh produce and things that are meant to be consumed without cooking them again, I think maybe it's not a good idea.”

920 S Colony St, Wallingford“This store is amazing! The food is incredible and is high quality. Their pre-made dinners are delicious and perfect for nights you don't want to cook. Everything I've had here is delicious and the staff is very friendly.”
“October when the foliage is at its peak is the perfect time to visit this farm.
Leaves falling in the background, it's loaded with New England Charm!
Adorable miniature horses next to the pumpkin patch.
Great place to visit on your own, as a couple or with your kids to pick out that perfect pumpkin to decorate for Halloween.
Charming country store.”
“Always clean and neat! Went there at all times of the day and always someone on the floor keeping it clean!
Shares the parking lot but a ton of parking available even on busy days”
“Last year we came for Apple picking and had some drone shots. It’s beautiful over the lake. This time we went for cherry picking. The location is different. You can follow the direction to reach there. A board was there just on the road. As always we do enjoy this type of activity. There was a winery shop beside the cherry farm. The landscape beside the farm was also beautiful. The picture was not that good however , because of cloudy sky. A clean blue sky with red cherrys will make those pics more beautiful.”
“I drink the cider every day in the fall months. It is simply amazing. Pure apple flavor, and you can feel the difference. If Lyman Orchard cider isn't in my fridge, it feels like something is missing.”
