Granby Land Trust
Founded in 1972, the Granby Land Trust (GLT) works to preserve Granby’s natural heritage through the conservation of its scenic vistas, open space corridors, wildlife habitat, ecologically sensitive areas, and agricultural land.
The GLT has protected 3,295 acres, as it owns 2,225 acres of land and holds conservation easements on an additional 1,070 acres. The Land Trust is committed to environmental education and provides and maintains walking trails on a number of its preserves.
The Land Trust earned National Accreditation by the Land Trust Alliance in 2014 and renewed its Accreditation in 2019, proving that it is committed to professional excellence, responsible governance and lasting stewardship of its properties.

Your membership matters and makes a lasting impact! Just as the GLT's Dewey-Granby Oak began as a small acorn, the Granby Land Trust's efforts to conserve and protect land start with the support of individuals like you. And just as a small acorn over time can grow into a mighty oak, your ongoing support can lead to significant, lasting change. The Granby Land Trust acquired the Dewey-Granby Oak in 1997. At that time, the GLT oversaw the protection of 492 acres of land. Today, the GLT oversees the care and protection of 3,295 acres of land. The support of members has made this possible. We hope you will take a moment to renew your GLT membership or join us for the first time and support the GLT’s efforts to preserve Granby’s natural heritage. A GLT family membership starts at just $30. Make your membership gift online at www.GranbyLandTrust.org or by mailing a check to us at: Granby Land Trust, PO Box 23, Granby, CT 06035. Thank you 🙏 for your support of the GLT and our community!
