She is passionate about animal rescue and live music - traveling across the country to see a favorite band is a pretty regular occurrence! Being out hiking in the woods enjoying the scenery with her beloved dogs is another favorite hobby, and also checking out the Pokemon Go scene in whatever city she happens to be in at any given time (coffee and dog leash in hand).

Is there any better time to get away than autumn? The colorful array of leaves, the crisp air, and the many events and festivals occurring all combine to make a magnificent time to take a vacation. If you’re looking for a great, quick fall getaway in Connecticut to take on a weekend, look no further, we’ve got just the spot for you. Head on down to Drazen Orchards for a delightful u-pick apple experience, followed up by a peaceful getaway in a lovely little basement suite surrounded by fall foliage.
Drazen Orchards is one of our favorite u-pick farms in Connecticut. You can find a variety of fruits here, with apples, blueberries, peaches, pumpkins, and more all seasonally available.
If you're not quite up to the adventure of picking your own fruit, the farm stand is an excellent place to stop. You can pick up pre-picked fruit, vegetables, honey, donuts, pies, and plenty more here.
Located about 20 minutes from the farm, you'll find this adorable little private apartment in Bethany. You'll have access to the beautiful backyard, which in the fall, is filled with gorgeous foliage.
