Bill & Amy had a farm …called Finnegan’s Farm, West!
Finnegan’s Farm, West is a family-run farm on 17+ acres of beautiful land in the heart of Litchfield County. In 2012, Bill and Amy Finnegan bought the property that had once been a farm in the late 1700s. Their dream was to breathe life back into the land, so they began clearing and milling trees to build the guest house, main house, and many of the outbuildings. The cabinets, trim, and flooring in all the structures on the property are also made from their trees.
Since they began building their farm, their mission has remained the same: First, to be good stewards of the land by utilizing organic and permaculture farming techniques. And second, to serve as a sanctuary to family, friends, and guests, and allow them to reconnect with nature, animals, and each other.
And on that farm…
There was a…
Guest house built lovingly by Bill from the wood on the property
A luxurious yurt – glamping for 1 or 2 people (from Memorial Day to October)
There is something completely magical about waking up in a field surrounded by beautiful meadows and Highland cows in the field. Toast some S’mores under the starry night sky and breathe in the good life!
Happy glamping
Thatched chapel & stable available for intimate weddings or celebrations of 50 or less
Possibly the only thatched chapel in the Northeast, and definitely the sweetest spot to renew your vows or hold a small wedding or celebration.
A 100 x 200 riding ring available for day use!
And an animal farm!
Plus flowers and vegetables are grown by Sunny Stems Farms. Like we said, it’s a little slice of heaven!
Life is short, speak your dreams!
Amy and Bill met in 2005 while living in Greenwich, CT. Bill was a carpenter, and Amy was an elementary school teacher. They fell in love and bought & renovated a 1905 home. It was their dream home until life abruptly changed for them when Amy’s brother, John, died of ALS. This life event made Amy and Bill reexamine their lives. They decided life was too short, so they embarked on a new adventure. They rented their home and took a year to travel the world. Beginning in the US they then headed to Europe, Asia, Iceland, and finally, Africa. It was during this trip that Amy began sharing with Bill her dream of one day living on a farm. Bill, having grown up in rural Missouri and Illinois, readily agreed that that sounded like his kind of dream too!
