🍂 康涅狄格州伊士顿是作者心中完美的秋季旅游胜地,其浪漫喜剧般的乡村风情使其区别于传统的秋季热门目的地如佛蒙特州或新罕布什尔州。小镇坐落于费尔菲尔德县,居民不到一万人,距离纽约市仅一个半小时车程,为寻求宁静秋日体验的游客提供了便利的地理位置。尤其当街道两旁被深红和金黄的落叶装点时,伊士顿显得尤为迷人,等待着人们去探索无尽的秋日冒险。

☕ Greiser's Coffee & Market 是一家历史悠久、充满活力的社区中心,坐落在一栋250年的建筑内,曾经历过邮局、加油站和杂货店等多种角色。如今,它成为品尝早餐、午餐、手工艺咖啡和当地特色商品的好去处,同时还举办诗歌之夜、音乐会和烧烤等活动。对于当地居民而言,这里的特色是为常客预留的手工马克杯,以及如南瓜香料拿铁和无花果帕尼尼等深受喜爱的美食,使其成为体验当地生活气息的理想场所。

🍎 Silverman's Farm 是体验秋季农场乐趣的绝佳选择,尤其在九月苹果季开始后。游客可以在果园里采摘新鲜苹果,乘坐拖拉机,并品尝到清爽的鲜榨苹果汁。农场还提供现场音乐、南瓜和苹果采摘、万圣节装饰品购买,以及与羊驼、鸸鹋和骆驼等动物互动。此外,这里还有各种秋季特色甜点,如苹果甜甜圈、山核桃派和南瓜派风味爆米花,让秋日体验更加丰富多彩。

🐐 Blue Button Farm 提供与可爱的山羊一同漫步的独特体验。游客可以与农场主人预约,带着农场里的山羊进行一次充满乐趣的自然小径徒步。农场还组织各种活动,如手工制作课程和棋盘之夜。此外,还可以参与苹果去核制作苹果派的体验,或尝试枫糖制作,感受纯正的新英格兰风情。不要忘记与农场的“吉祥物”——迷你马Button打个招呼。

🍁 Crow Hill Preserve 是进行秋叶观赏的理想地点,拥有近4英里的步道,让游客沉浸在典型的“新英格兰”秋日美景中。在落叶沙沙作响的步道上行走,是一种令人振奋的体验。该保护区是Trout Brook Valley Conservation Area的一部分,这里栖息着超过200种鸟类,包括燕雀、麻雀和莺等,是观鸟爱好者的天堂。在秋季即将结束时,还可以前往Maple Row Farm,在火炉边享用热巧克力,感受圣诞节的节日氛围,并亲手砍伐一棵圣诞树。

Visiting Easton, Connecticut, in the fall makes me feel as though I'm stepping into a romantic comedy.

Though many travelers head to Vermont or New Hampshire for a fall escape, I say there's nothing quite like autumn in Connecticut.

Growing up in the state allowed me to explore the quaintest towns most tourists miss, and one of my favorites is Easton. In my opinion, it's the most magical when its streets are lined with crimson and gold leaves, and endless fall adventures await.

Located in Fairfield County, the small town is home to fewer than 10,000 residents and is only about an hour-and-a-half-long drive from New York City.

Here are a few of my favorite things to do and places to visit in Easton every fall.

Greiser's Coffee & Market is where locals gather for pumpkin-spice lattes and pastries.

Located in a 250-year-old building, Greiser's has spent the past century serving as Easton's post office, a gas station, a general store, and more.

Today, it's a great spot for grabbing breakfast, lunch, craft coffee, local goods, and charming antiquities. Greiser's is also the place to be if you want to attend a poetry night, concert, or cookout.

The market is so popular with locals that it even has an entire cupboard dedicated to handmade mugs for regular customers.

Whenever I visit, I order my favorites — a pumpkin-spice latte and brie and fig panini — and curl up with a good read. I also make sure I grab a box of Greiser's Parmesan-leek pastries and a seasonal bouquet to go.

Picking apples and riding tractors at Silverman's Farm never gets old.

September kicks off apple season at Silverman's Farm, where the fresh-pressed cider is always perfectly chilled.

My best childhood memories include running through the orchards, going on tractor rides, and picking apples at Silverman's — and then baking a mile-high apple pie with my mom later that night. The tradition still goes strong years later.

On most fall weekends, the farm has live music to enjoy; pumpkins and apples to pick; scarecrows and ornamental corn to buy; and alpacas, emus, and llamas to feed.

Silverman's is also the place to go for fall treats, like cider doughnuts, pecan pie, candy apples, and pumpkin-spice cheesecake popcorn.

Shaggy Coos Farm and Creamery is all about the honor system.

Whenever I'm in Easton, I head down a tree-lined lane to the sweet little farm store Shaggy Coos Farm and Creamery.

Adding to the quaint, old-school experience is the fact that Shaggy Coos runs on the honor system. There's no cashier here, just a sign that reads, "Serve yourself."

Here, you can shop for local gems, such as decadent creamline strawberry or chocolate milk, hand-collected eggs, and fresh cuts of pork and beef.

I recommend picking up a tub of Shaggy Coos' deliciously creamy gelato in flavors like toasted coconut, chocolate raspberry, and tiramisu.

Blue Button Farm hosts nature walks with baby goats.

If you love baby goats, visit Blue Button Farm. There, you can book a time with owners Holly and Dennis to take a nature trail walk with their resident goats.

The farm also hosts tons of other activities, from craft sessions to chess nights. Depending on the season, you can core your own fresh apples for a pie-baking session or try out maple sugaring for a true New England experience.

While there, be sure to say hi to Button, the farm's namesake and mini horse!

Crow Hill Preserve has miles of leaf-peeping trails to explore.

There's something invigorating about exploring a new trail while immersed in quintessential New England foliage, with autumn leaves crunching beneath your feet.

So, I suggest leaf-peeping at Crow Hill Preserve, which has nearly 4 miles of trails.

Be sure to pack your binoculars, too. It's part of the Trout Brook Valley Conservation Area, which is home to over 200 recorded bird species, including finches, sparrows, and warblers.

And if you're in town as fall ends, experience some Christmas spirit at Maple Row Farm.

Many parts of Easton start preparing for Christmas in November, long before fall officially comes to an end.

If you're looking for a taste of the winter holidays, head to Maple Row Farm to enjoy hot chocolate by a fire pit before cutting down a beautiful balsam fir.

You definitely won't want to miss Maple Row's hot mulled cider.
