Connecticut is loaded with horrifying haunted houses and other terrifying events made to scare even the bravest of adults. While those Halloween attractions keep the grownups entertained, the little kids in your life just aren’t ready for that kind of frightful entertainment. This farm train is oodles of fun and designed especially with the wee ones in mind. Enjoy an afternoon in the country with the kids to celebrate the harvest season.
Buttonwood Farm in Griswold is bursting at the seams with fall fun for the family. From September 22th to October 28th on weekends and holidays, the farm will be open for autumn entertainment.
