Weir Farm in Ridgefield and Wilton is officially Connecticut’s first “national historic park.”
Already a national historic site, the “Weir Farm National Historical Park Redesignation Act,” signed into law Jan. 6 by President Donald Trump, turns the 75-acre collection of trails and galleries into a national historic park.
When the Senate bill was passed, U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) said that the redesignation better reflects how the property is used by visitors.
