I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and got to spend time with family and friends. Thanksgiving has always been my favorite holiday, the gathering of loved ones around the table enjoying a bounty of food the likes of which you only see once a year.

I’ve vowed to be positive, so don’t get me wrong: life is hard. I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately.

When you are a farmer, November is a good time to take stock of the past growing season, and the summer of 2018 was a tough one.
Granby’s annual Open Farm Day, held Sept. 15, was a perfect opportunity to get up close with the farm animals in town. This youngster was captivated by the calves at House of Hayes.
Sign-up night for Granby 4-H is planned for Wednesday, Oct. 3, at Holcomb Farm in West Granby.
Holcomb Farm was once again a key stop on the Granby Open Farm day route, organized by the Granby Agricultural Commission, and the many who stopped by enjoyed great hands-on experiences.
