Orange

Just west of New Haven, Orange has the perfect small town feel with close proximity to a bustling city. This town remained a simple farming community until the 1940’s when postwar residential construction began. One of the oldest farms in the country still operates here today, Field View Farm, since 1639. Visit today and see the farmlands and enjoy some homemade ice cream. The PEZ Candy factory is also located in the town, making candy with collectible dispensers for over 50 years. The factory also offers tours so you can watch how the candy is made and take a treat home for yourself.
