FOOD AND FAIRIES
While you're here, take a moment to enjoy the peaceful setting of beautiful Sappington Park. Walk the grounds, visit the gardens, and take in the history that surrounds you. Wander around the pond where wild geese walk amongst us.
While you're at it, enjoy a wonderful meal at The Barn and savor their world‑famous Avocado Toast and popular Quiche. Then top off your visit by heading upstairs to The Loft, an iconic gift shop filled with handmade jewelry, greeting cards, local honey, books by local authors, and cozy home‑decor treasures. If you're lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of one of the shop’s fairies.
And yes… fairies ARE real. Just ask our youngest visitors.
