Ellington

Bee Haven Apiaries bottles wildflower and local honey with no additives, from hives kept on Stag Trail in Tolland. Their honey turns up on shelves at Ellington Agway and a handful of other regional retailers, alongside direct sales from the farm. It's a small, hands-on operation — the beekeeper who capped the jar is the same one who answers the phone.

Farmington

Jones' Apiaries has kept bees in Farmington since 1997, started by Ted and Becky Jones as a family operation. Beyond bottling small-batch honey, they sell beekeeping supplies and each spring offer nucleus colonies and queens to other beekeepers — order early, since colonies typically sell out by late April.

This address is not a farm. DementedFX is an indoor haunted-house attraction occupying a 20,000-square-foot warehouse on Main Street in Holyoke, built around a horror storyline with animatronics and interactive sets. It relocated here from East Hampton after opening in 2014.

Storrs

The Nathan Hale Inn is a 100-room hotel on the University of Connecticut's agricultural campus in Storrs, now operating as the Graduate by Hilton Storrs. It isn't a working farm itself, but its location puts guests near UConn's agricultural shows and the working farmland surrounding the campus.
