Mission Statement
Founded in 1972, the Granby Land Trust preserves Granby's natural heritage through the conservation of its scenic and historic vistas, open space corridors, wildlife habitat, ecologically sensitive areas, and agricultural land.
We seek to achieve this mission through strategic land acquisition, responsible land stewardship, effective partnerships with other land conservation organizations, public education, and advocacy for environmentalism and conservation.
The GLT maintains public trails on a number of its properties. Providing our community with opportunities to get outside, exercise and reconnect with nature is important to us.
The Granby Land Trust is nationally accredited.

✨GLT VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT - Mark Kennedy: The Land Trust relies on the important work of its many volunteers. This month we recognize Mark Kennedy, a Granby native and longtime GLT Member, who regularly steps up to support our work, always is available for our Preserve Our Property Days (he often recruits his sons to help as well!), is a major contributor to our annual Earth Day Weekend Cleanup, and is a big help with our property and trail maintenance efforts. We thank 👏 Mark for his commitment, time and energy - citizens like Mark are making a difference in our community.
