General:

You could not find a more perfect spot for relaxing or exploring the New England countryside. Wander through the rolling hills and green pastures that make up the rural landscape of Pomfret. Stroll by centuries old stonewalls and gentle streams that bore witness to Colonial Connecticut. There are still fourteen working farms in Pomfret and if you visit us in spring or summer treat yourself to a local favorite, We-Li-Kit Ice Cream, made fresh on their dairy farm.Connecticut's Northeast quadrant is known as The Quiet Corner. Rich in history, relics of its lively past remain plentiful here. Dappled on town greens and country roadsides are the historical churches, and pre-revolutionary homes of the 18th and 19th centuries. Museums and antique shops contain testaments to a simpler time. Two centuries after the War of Independence, you can rediscover historic heroes, visit their farms, and follow the path of the Continental Army on the Revolutionary Road. The National Register of Historic Places designates Wolf Den State Park, the Pomfret Street Historic District and Brayton Grist Mill to name just a few.Whatever your outdoor interest, whether it is long walks, bird watching, hiking, biking, golfing or cross-country skiing, you can indulge yourself in Pomfret.
