Support the GLT's Holcomb Farm Stewardship Fund Campaign 1920 by 700

We Did It! Thank You for Investing in Granby’s Future

The Granby Land Trust gratefully recognizes all who supported the GLT’s Holcomb Farm Stewardship Fund Campaign (see list below), and the anonymous donor who offered up an amazing $100,000 challenge gift to get the campaign started. We are pleased to report that, working together, we rose to – and exceeded – that challenge, raising a remarkable $221,563 to-date (the campaign remains open and you can still make a gift!). ­

These funds are helping underwrite the GLT’s $500,000 investment, made this past fall, to acquire a conservation easement on 277 acres of the historic, scenic, and environmentally significant Holcomb Farm – a working farm that grows clean food for thousands of people, including people in need. ­The property includes the Holcomb Tree Trail as well as a network of woodland trails – all of which are maintained by the Friends of Holcomb Farm. The GLT will now ensure this land is protected from development – forever.

We thank each of you on this list for your generous, steadfast, and enthusiastic commitment to preserving Granby's natural heritage and investing in one of our town’s truly special places.

You Can Still Help – Make a Contribution Today and Add Your Name to Our List of Project Supporters!

❄️ Snowy trail on the GLT’s Dismal Brook Wildlife Preserve in North Granby. This beautiful place was preserved forever by longtime GLT Board Member Jamie Gamble who donated this 210-acre property to the Land Trust in 2020. We are so grateful 🙏 for Jamie’s vision and generosity.

Calm before the storm. A quiet morning view of Salmon Brook next to the GLT’s Holcomb Hill Preserve in West Granby.

You guys are great. Love all the properties!

💥 FLASH HIKE 🥾! Join us THIS Monday – MLK Day – at 11AM for a winter ❄️ hike led by Property Steward Fran Armentano on the GLT’s Mary Edwards Mountain Property in North Granby. With snow in the forecast for Sunday, it should be a beautiful and peaceful walk in the woods. No need to RSVP, just come prepared for a 2-3 mile hike and feel free to bring snowshoes if we have significant snow. If you have any questions about this hike or trail conditions, please contact Fran Armentano at farmano200@gmail.com. Hope to see you on Monday!
