Stanley-Whitman House

Stanley-Whitman House, a ca. 1720 National Historic Landmark in the heart of Farmington, Connecticut, is more than a museum; it is a living storybook of New England’s colonial past. For nearly a century, this house museum has welcomed visitors to step back in time and discover the rhythms of daily life in 18th- and early 19th-century Farmington.

We offer guided house tours, seasonal programs, school field trips, and hands-on workshops that illuminate history through experience. From hearth cooking and foodways demonstrations to gravestone cleaning workshops and walking tours of Memento Mori Cemetery, each program brings to life the traditions, struggles, and resilience of early residents. Our growing America250 initiatives highlight Farmington’s role in the Revolutionary War, showcasing both well-known patriots and underrepresented voices, including women, Indigenous peoples, and African Americans.

Our interpretive gardens, artist interventions, and rotating exhibits connect the past to the present, while our partnerships with local schools, historical societies, and cultural organizations deepen community impact. The Stanley-Whitman House also serves as a resource for genealogists, researchers, and heritage travelers who seek authentic connections to New England history.

What makes us unique is the way we blend scholarship with storytelling, preservation with participation. Visitors don’t just learn history here; they touch it, taste it, and walk in its footsteps. Whether you join us for a house tour, attend a lecture, bring your students, or support us through membership and special events like our annual Progressive Dinner, you become part of a tradition of keeping history alive for future generations.

Opening Spring 2026

At Dogtopia, we believe your pup deserves the very best in care, safety, and fun. Whether it’s a few hours of daycare, an overnight stay, or a relaxing spa visit, Dogtopia is your dog’s home away from home.

Our dog daycare offers a safe, supervised, and enriching environment with off-leash play in spacious indoor playrooms. Dogs are grouped by size, play style, and temperament to ensure positive, safe socialization. Our highly trained Canine Coaches actively supervise play, reinforce good behavior, and provide plenty of love and attention throughout the day.

Dogtopia is about more than play — it’s about wellness. A day with us helps dogs stay active, burn energy, and head home happy and relaxed. We also offer the DASH Activity Collar, a daycare-approved smart collar that tracks your dog’s activity, rest, and overall wellness, giving you valuable insights both at Dogtopia and at home.

Our boarding services combine all-day play with comfortable overnight care from our trusted team. Need a little extra pampering? Our spa services include baths, brush-outs, nail trims, and more, so your pup looks and feels their best.

Safety and transparency are at the heart of everything we do. Every Dogtopia location features live webcams so you can check in on your pup anytime. Our facilities are cleaned with pet-safe products, and our team is trained in canine behavior, first aid, and safety protocols.

In acknowledgment of Brain Injury Awareness month, we are excited to announce the opening of our new clinic, the FIRST and ONLY Brain Restore Center in all of Connecticut.

Brain Restore Centers is a nationwide initiative, lead by experts across every medical speciality to finally tackle the problem of concussion, brain injury and cognitive decline rapidly increasing across our country.

While Brain Injury and Cognitive Decline is on the rise in our country, our clinic is offering Free Advanced FDA-approved RightEye Exam to all Connecticut residents in an attempt to help give people in our communities a detailed deep dive into understanding the “WHY” behind what they are experiencing.

Many members of our communities silently struggle with lingering symptoms of head injuries, PTSD, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and memory loss, and we want to give back by providing hope and help through real, science-backed brain health solutions.

This community is part of a nationwide initiative supported locally to raise awareness about the brain’s ability to heal through modern therapies such as neurofeedback EEG detailed functional brain scan, low-level laser therapy, Neuro-rehabilitation Exercises, and neuro-functional medicine.

We have been optimizing this treatment system over the last 10 years and are so grateful to finally be able to share it with our communities and loved ones.
