NORTH BRANFORD
Located on Valley Road in North Branford, we are in a valley, just as the name of the road says. Originally a potato farm, Van Wilgen’s started farming this property in 1936 growing nursery stock. A few years later and we still keep true to our roots. A bit of the beaten path but close enough to civilization, our picturesque property has an 8 acre pond and the Branford River flowing through the middle. Perfect place to escape, slow down, enjoy nature and beautiful plants.
