Fairfield home connected to inspiration for Pepperidge Farm Meg Barone FacebookTwitterEmail Colonial house at 344 Fence Row Drive, in the gated and 24-hour guarded The Ridge in Fairfield.Contributed photo / Oliver Bencosme Photo FAIRFIELD Singer-songwriter Van Morrison compared someone to the sweetness of tupelo honey in his 1971 song, and the black tupelo tree, also known as a pepperidge tree, brought sweet success for Margaret Rudkin. She named her commercial baking business for her Pepperidge Farm in Fairfield’s Greenfield Hill neighborhood. That farm was named for the grove of pepperidge trees that stood upon its 123 acres. That land, coupled with an additional 100 acres, became The Ridge, a 24-hour guarded and private, gated community of 96 luxury homes on the border of Westport and Fairfield. There, in the gray and white colonial house at 344 Fence Row Drive, la dolce vita, or the sweet life, awaits its next owners.

Hundreds Of Fairfield Students Petition For Half-Day Wednesdays

Replies(69) Fairfield students are asking for one half-day per week as they return to full-time, in-person learning. (Shutterstock) FAIRFIELD, CT Hundreds of students have signed a petition requesting that Fairfield Public Schools change Wednesdays to a half-day now that the school district has returned to full-time, in-person learning. Fairfield schools fully reopened Monday and Tuesday after about a year of remote and hybrid education amid the coronavirus pandemic. With the learning model change, high school and middle school students expressed anxiety and requested that time be built into the academic week that would allow them to decompress. The Board of Education discussed the petition Tuesday, and board member Jeff Peterson provided Fairfield Patch with an edited version of a letter from three high school students, which was sent March 2 to the board and Superintendent Mike Cummings. As of Tuesday night, about 800 students had signed the petition, according to Peterson.
