The Old Farm School, located at 151 School Street in Bloomfield, Connecticut, is the town's oldest public building, constructed in 1796. It functioned continuously as a school until 1922, famously lacking running water and electricity throughout its operational years, and features original desks dating back to its early use as an educational facility.
Managed by the Wintonbury Historical Society, the Old Farm School serves as a historic landmark, showcasing its rich educational heritage with access to various artifacts and exhibits, including a record player, teacher's desk, and display shelves from the 1840s. The building remains a vital part of Bloomfield's history and offers opportunities for community engagement and learning about the area's past.
