This award recognizes an individual who provides exceptional property stewardship support to the GLT. In this case, that involves caring for a single extraordinary tree that requires thoughtful care and ongoing attention.
The 2025 Mary Edwards Friend of the Land Trust Award—the GLT’s highest honor—was given to Will Hart and his sister Sarah Koeniger, who donated 44 acres of land—now known at the Hart Family Preserve—to the trust earlier this year.

One thing that unites us as a nation is land: Americans strongly support saving the natural spaces they love. Since 1972, the Granby Land Trust (GLT) has been doing just that for the people of Granby.
On June 3, as part of Connecticut Trails Day Weekend, the Granby Land Trust hosted Michael Wojtech, author of Bark: A Field Guide to Trees of the Northeast, for a guided walk on the GLT’s Dismal Brook Wildlife Preserve in North Granby.
The Granby Land Trust (GLT) is excited to announce that its new Emery/Hart Trail to the Crag Mountain Lookout is now open. This is an incredible addition to the Seth and Lucy Holcombe Preserve trail system, with spectacular views to the south, east and west.
The Granby Land Trust’s (GLT) annual spring migration bird walks at the Dismal Brook Wildlife Preserve delivered exciting sightings again this Mother’s Day weekend. Despite the somewhat windy conditions, participants identified 50 bird species on Sunday and 48 species on Monday.
On a beautiful late April evening, GLT member Aubrey Schulz helped a group of 24 participants locate and identify spring ephemeral plants on the GLT’s Mary Edwards Mountain Property in North Granby.
More than 100 Granby Land Trust (GLT) members and friends fanned out across Granby over the course of Earth Day weekend, picking up roadside trash from more than 50 miles of road as part of the GLT’s fourth annual Earth Day Roadside Cleanup.
On Connecticut Trails Day, Sunday, June 8, from 12 to 2 p.m., naturalist, writer, speaker, photographer and illustrator Michael Wojtech will help us see trees in ways we may not have noticed before.
