| Middlefield is a small rural hilltown with a population under 500. It is
located in the center of the land area between the Connecticut River and
New York State. The 1800-foot altitude of the town center provides
panoramic views across the surrounding countryside. Points of interest
include Glendale Falls, keystone railroad arches, an abandoned soapstone
quarry and a clutch of scenic rivers.
In keeping with its strong agricultural background, Middlefield hosts an
annual agricultural fair, a 138-year old tradition of the town.
Historically the town was also home to a flourishing woolen mill trade that
boomed in the late 1800's when the town's population peaked at over 1,000
people. Small farms are still the largest employers in town and the small
general store, a mail order business and a few local artisans comprise the
local industry profile. |
