What a Move to Glastonbury Has to Offer
Extending into the nearby foothills, the town of Glastonbury in Hartford County, Connecticut, is located on the banks of the Connecticut River. Founded in 1693, the town of Glastonbury was a pioneer in schools, hospitals and the abolition of slavery, abolishing it 60 years before the state of Connecticut did formally. The oldest continuously operating ferry in America, in operation since 1655, connects Glastonbury with Rocky Hill on the opposite side of the Connecticut River.
When the Revolutionary War broke out, Yale University held some of its classes in Glastonbury and student Noah Webster, who was the author of the first American dictionary, attended some of them. He later taught classes in Glastonbury schoolhouses. Glastonbury has since maintained its national reputation for academic excellence.
In the 18th and 19th centuries, Glastonbury economy boomed as industries in shipping and trade developed. Later industries were pioneered by inventors of unique brands of soap, leather goods, wool, cotton products, paper and airplanes. A variety of peach that could withstand cold New England winters was developed and cultivated here by John Howard Hale, who later founded Storrs Agricultural College, now known as the University of Connecticut. His historic home, at the intersection of Main Street and Route 17 has been adapted to offices in modern times. Tobacco and different varieties of berries are still cultivated in Glastonbury.
The town boasts a private lake, Diamond Lake, and hiking, hunting and fishing are popular.
