Fish Family Farm, Bolton CT
Fish Family Farm Creamery 20 Dimock Ln Bolton, Connecticut From what I read on their facebook page this farm is a favorite of the locals. They sell their own milk and ice cream right on the premises in their farm store. The milk truck reminded me of my youth where it was common place to see milk delivery in glass bottles. My Great Grandmother still got milk delivered right up until around 1975 when they stopped delivering. There would always be a layer of cream that rose to the top which she’d skim off and save for her coffee. They’d leave the milk inside the milk box which normally was…

Old farm & barn, Durham CT
An old tractor sits quietly in a farm on the Chamberlain Highway in Berlin CT. The barn in the back ground has been unoccupied for years and years. I had always thought, by virtue of the construction, that this barn once occupied chicken coups. If any of you have any history on this barn please write in.

Barn in Bethlehem CT
Cheryl and I were out “barn hunting” in Bethlehem CT and came upon this beautiful white barn. It appeared that the 2nd floor was full of hay bails. Like my father before me I worked on a dairy farm as a kid. I remember being at the top of one of those conveyors receiving bails of hay and having to stack them as fast as I could to keep up with the farmer below. It was hot and the air was not very healthy but it was a memory I wouldn’t trade. Photographed with Nikon D7100, 24MP camera and 18-55 mm lens shot @ 35mm (35mm equiv = 52 mm).…

Beautiful barn setting in Bethlehem CT
Cheryl and I caught an absolutely beautiful and warm October day while we set out to track down our list of barns in Bethlehem CT. Knowing that winter was right around the corner we wanted to capture as many barns as we could before the snow flew and the cold weather set in. The barn is untouched but honestly the land it sat on didn’t make for the best image. So I took artistic license and photoshpped the barn/silo into another scene. Photographed with a Nikon D7100, 24 MP camera and a Nikon 18-55 lens at 38 mm. (35mm equiv.=57mm) 1/250th, f13, ISO 100 Aperture Priority
