The Danbury City Council has approved the purchase of Happy Trails Farm for $1.57 million. The 16-acre farm will be maintained as open space and provide additional recreational opportunities. Council members see this as a “once-in-a-lifetime” chance to extend Rogers Park and reconnect it with the Old Quarry Nature Center. The current owners will lease the property for two years, continuing operations before transitioning out. The purchase is expected to be finalized by the end of the year.
