Mike and Luann Hoffman have been pillars of the Ellington Farmers Market since 2007. While Luann has managed to get most of the town addicted to her incredible baked goods, Mike does everything from bringing antique tractors and calves to the market for our customers’ enjoyment, to building the track for the newly-popular Zucchini 500 car races. I thought you would enjoy the history of the Hoffman farm, on which land they are still farming today.
This second blog on the history of farming in Ellington takes you through four generations going back 114 years. It can be found at:
