Wing Dance Apiary
Nestled in the picturesque town of Cheshire, Connecticut is Wing Dance Apiary LLC, where you can find the home of some delicious honey.

Norton Brothers Fruit Farm
Norton Brothers Fruit Farm, a cherished family-run establishment in Cheshire, Connecticut, beckons visitors for delightful family outings.

It promises an experience that won’t disappoint.
Durty Jerk
In 2001, Durty Jerk founder Jay McKinney moved to a home with a Jamaican Landlord. Over time, his appreciation and deep fascination for Caribbean culture grew exponentially. That fascination led him to an obsession with Jamaican jerk chicken

Oh Shito! is the brainchild of co-founder, Kwame Asare. On a trip to Ghana in 2019, he was inspired by the essence and rich culture of his birthplace. One constant staple of his favorite waakye dish was shito — a common sauce condiment in Ghana.
Mountain Dairy
The Stearns family has been on their farm in Mansfield for 11 generations since Boaz and Lydia Stearns began growing mulberries for the silk industry in 1772. The family switched to dairying in 1871, and haven’t looked back.
Arethusa Farms
If you were reincarnated as a cow, you could scarcely do better than to be one of the Jerseys or Holsteins of Arethusa Farm. At the Litchfield dairy farm, the cows are treated to daily tail washing, conditioning and brushing, frequent bedding changes, wide-open pastures, and all-around pristine conditions. These high standards of care have created exquisitely clean, rich milk.

Before finding her way to New Haven in 2014, Nieda was the proud owner of three restaurants in Baghdad before being displaced in 2005.
