My Lists Keep Growing Connecticut Historic Gardens I like the idea behind this initiative. I like gardens and I like history so I must really like historical gardens. 13 of the current 15 gardens are at museums, so I’ll get to them by default.

Gozzi’s Turkey Farm
Max Headroom Goes to Guilford Gozzi's Neon Turkeys, Guilford November 2009 & 2013 Some pictures are from a 2013 revisit.
