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!

An oldie but a goodie! ➡️Check out this June 2023 shot of Baltimore Oriole mates and their nest near the South Marsh at the GLT’s Dismal Brook Wildlife Preserve. If you look closely, you’ll see that the female has breakfast ready for her nestlings. We once again thank GLT Member Don Shaw, Jr. for sharing this incredible photo. We saw a number of Orioles on this year’s GLT Bird Walks, so be on the lookout when you visit the Dismal Brook Wildilife Preserve!

Today, we remember and honor those who served and died in service to our nation 🇺🇸. They sacrificed their lives for us to protect our country and preserve our democratic ideals. One way to honor our fallen heroes is by attending today’s Memorial Day Parade in Granby which commences at 10AM. Photo courtesy of Peter Dinella. Have a meaningful Memorial Day.
