Wolcott sits in the hills northeast of Waterbury, and its landscape runs heavily to large-lot residential zoning with multi-acre estate properties tucked back on the back roads. There's the historic Wolcott Center along the Town Green, the Woodtick section with its open, hard-to-irrigate lots, the Cedar Lake recreational community with its narrow lakeside lanes and lake views, and the wooded estate parcels out toward the Bristol, Southington, and Waterbury lines. The rolling-hill terrain means soils shift from glacial-till loam in the valleys to rockier upland ground on the hill grades, and deer pressure is a constant on the open back-road lots.
CT Sod is based in nearby Milford, an easy run up Route 8 and I-84 from Wolcott. Pallets are cut to order at the farm the morning of installation, placed exactly where the crew needs them by all-terrain forklift, and laid by a team that installs sod nearly every day across New Haven and Fairfield Counties — backed by 30 years of sod industry experience.
