The Granby Land Trust’s Godard Preserve trailhead, located off of Donahue Road in North Granby, welcomes visitors to this special property.
For about 50 years, the Granby Community Garden has played a quiet but meaningful role in Granby’s community life, offering residents a shared place to grow food, learn from one another, and stay connected to the land.
Having had childhood jobs cleaning up after the cows and bringing in their hay on the award-winning Davis farm on North Granby Road, and weeding and harvesting vegetables at Hidden Acres on East Street, it is no surprise that when grown up and looking for places to volunteer, Mark Kennedy ended up at Holcomb Farm.
This winter’s snow has created terrific conditions for outdoor enthusiasts on Granby Land Trust trails.
In northern Connecticut, spring gardening (March through May) focuses on indoor seed starting, cleaning up debris, improving soil and planting cool-weather crops. Start peppers, tomatoes and eggplants indoors six to eight weeks before the last frost date.
Imagine picking up a weekly share of just-harvested vegetables, grown right here in West Granby and bursting with flavor—all summer long and into the fall.
Holcomb Farm’s Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) and Pick-Your-Own (PYO) programs connect you directly to the land and the farmers who tend it—providing seasonal produce and supporting sustainable agriculture while strengthening local food access.

This is simply delicious! A dear friend worked at Rosie’s Bakery in Boston 40+ years ago and always brought it when she visited.

Bluebird skies and fresh tracks cutting through a blanket of crisp white snow on the Holcomb Tree Trail. Winter is a great time to enjoy the Tree Trail! Grab your snowshoes or cross-country skis and head on over.
