West Colebrook Farm Company

West Colebrook Farm is a 50 acre farm owned and operated by the nonprofit West Colebrook Farm Company in Colebrook, Connecticut in Litchfield County (the Farm), founded in 2018 in order to preserve an historic 18th century farm, to foster interest in farming and other traditional agricultural activities such as milling, and to make locally produced farm products available to the town and nearby community. The Farm is one of Colebrooks oldest 18th century colonial properties, settled by Revolutionary War veteran Lieutenant John Phelps and his wife Betsy Phelps in 1781, and developed by his sons Charles and Ralzemon Phelps and their descendants into an over 500 acre property including livestock and pastures, hay fields, saw mill, ice pond and quarry. The Phelps were generous benefactors of the town of Colebrook, including donating flowers to the church and stone from their quarry to build the gates to the Colebrook Center Cemetery, where Charles and Ralzemon and their families rest.Today
