Our Local Impact

We take pride in making a positive impact in our community through partnerships with 12+ local non-profit organizations, focusing on areas of food/housing insecurity and children’s literacy. Every October, we host Fairfield’s popular Enchanted Castle, a family friendly event at the Burr Homestead, raising funds to support our programs throughout the year. Last year alone, we donated 800+ volunteer hours to various partner programs. Learn more about our current focus.
