Fodor Farm
A Historic Landmark Preserved
At 328 Flax Hill Road lies one of Norwalk’s significant agricultural landmarks. The newly completed renovations at the actual homestead at Fodor Farm are simply spectacular. The attention to detail is second to none while maintaining the integrity of the original look and feel of the house. The restoration truly does this city landmark proud! The house is surrounded by all-organic community gardens. Dating back to 1809 the Fodor homestead actually has ties to another famous Norwalk name - Lockwood. Stop by and visit this slice of local history.
