Traveling: Visiting Fairfield, California
Fairfield has a variety of things to do and see especially if you have a sweet tooth or a craving for wine tasting. There are museums, outdoor parks and plenty of dining options as well.
One of the most popular stops in the town is the famous Jelly Belly Factory. You can set off on a 40-minute walking tour where you will witness the jelly bean making process from beginning to end, with samples along the way. The aromas of cinnamon, chocolate, peach and many other delicious flavors will tempt your taste buds along the way.
After your tour has ended, don’t miss the tasting bar, where you get to sample various flavors of jelly beans. There is also a souvenir shop and of course a snack bar with drinks and food if you choose to eat while you are there.
The Anheuser-Busch brewery is another unique tour which will let you witness the beer making process and sample some fresh brews and munch on pretzels. The tour is free but you can upgrade for different tours. You can just stop in for a tasting if you don’t have time for a tour. Check out the famous Clydesdale horses while you are there.
Fairfield has plenty of wineries to visit, take a tour or do some tasting. There is also an olive ranch where you can learn the process of making olive oil and take home some fresh made oil to enjoy.
