Lyman Orchards

Pick your own berries, peaches, pears, apples, and pumpkins at the charming farm, which has been in the Lyman family since 1741. The 1,100-acre property lies just about midway between Hartford and New Haven, and also boasts two 18-hole golf courses, a market/bakery, and weekend breakfasts on the deck from May through October. Don't miss the apple pie — many say it's the best in the state.
