Now entering its third year of development, the Holcomb Farm Tree Trail is really taking shape. The entrance, off Day St. South near its intersection with Simsbury Road, will soon host an information kiosk, and more interpretive signs and maps are planned.
The Friends want to acknowledge the recent passing of our friend and neighbor, Charlie Warren. Charlie and his wife were known for many things; for us, they were Santa and Mrs. Claus around the large Christmas Tree in front of the Farm, for years.
In the fall of 2006, Donna Snyder arrived in Granby with her young family, returning to the New England area where she had been born and raised. The next spring, she discovered Holcomb Farm when she was looking for a place to purchase pick-your-own vegetables.
In support of the Granby Land Trust and McLean Game Refuge, a First Congregational Church crew celebrated Earth Day on April 24 by collecting a dozen trash bags of roadside litter in just one hour.
After a hiatus in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Granby Land Trust (GLT) once again hosted two bird walks over the Mother’s Day weekend at the GLT’s Dismal Brook Wildlife Preserve.
Members of the Granby Land Trust Youth Conservation Corps, along with a solid cadre of adult volunteers, including members of the GLT board of directors, property stewards, and GLT members at-large, have spent six weekends working to construct and blaze trails on the GLT’s Katan-Ensor Preserve and Old Messenger Road Corridor properties.
I’ll tell you what needs to change;
Things that need to go as well
Small things to big things
All need to change in one way
Why is it that everyone must live up to the standards of normal,
that some normal is worse than being abnormal,
that some abnormalities are worse than being normal?
We are afraid of COVID
And yes, it is alarming
But something no one mentions
Is the disease within our own heart
