Fact text
- Wethersfield was so obsessed with onions that outsiders nicknamed it 'Oniontown', home of the world-famous Wethersfield red onion.
- A meteorite crashed through a Wethersfield roof in 1982, remarkably, it was the *second* meteorite to hit the town in just 11 years.
- Both meteorites crashed through roofs and somehow neither one injured the occupants, which feels statistically impossible.
- America's oldest continuously operating seed company was founded here in 1820, pioneering the now-ubiquitous sealed seed packet.
- Yale University briefly called Wethersfield home from 1716 to 1718 before packing up and moving to New Haven.
