BLOOMFIELD FARM IMPLEMENT MUSEUM

 
Bloomfield, CT – I saw a sign off the highway and followed it to the Farm Museum. It was early in the morning so it was closed; it is only open by appointment anyway. It was started by W.T. Phillips in 1980 as a tribute to his father, an illiterate blacksmith on the island of St. Kitts in the British West Indies. It has a large number of implements on display. I got this information from an article written in 2003 and at that time W.T. was 77.

NOTE: I spoke to a local and he said the museum is closed.

In this photo is what I believe to be a potato picker, the museum barn is in the background.

Enjoy
