GLT Earth Day Roadside Cleanup

It’s that time of year again. In what has become a Granby tradition, the Granby Land Trust will take part in the Great Global Cleanup® over Earth Day Weekend, April 23–26. This worldwide campaign removes billions of pieces of trash from neighborhoods, beaches, rivers, lakes, trails and parks—reducing waste and plastic pollution, improving habitats and preventing harm to wildlife and people.

Ephemeral Wildflower Walk

On Wednesday, April 29, from 6 to 7:30 p.m., the Granby Land Trust will host a Spring Ephemeral Wildflower Walk on the GLT’s Katan-Ensor Preserve. The forest floor awakens at this time of year with vibrant colors and delicate blooms.
