Ask your Friendly Farmer

Dear Friendly Farmer,
My daughter has a pet rabbit and we like to feed it a little hay from time to time. Since we only need a little bit at a time, I usually just buy a bale at my local feed store, but the last time I went, hay DOUBLED in price! What gives? Can I get it cheaper from a local farmer?
Signed,
Hay Now

Despite a challenging year, Granby farms prepare for Open Farm Day

With harvest season underway, the grit and tenacity of farmers across the state, including right here in Granby, is evident. From the 2022 drought to a warm winter, unseasonal cold snaps, record rainfalls, extreme heat and wildfire smoke, farms are struggling.
