This month the NOT WANTED campaign is sponsoring the first in a series of events to remove invasive plants from a visible public site in town. It will be a safe and family-friendly event with tools and expertise provided.
Back in the Holcomb Farm Farm Store for another season is the infamous umami bomb… black garlic!
Now that it is fall, I enjoy making soups again. I love a good butternut squash soup but have never had a good recipe—until now.
These three elm trees are on the Tree Trail at Holcomb Farm. All three were planted in October 2018, and have grown several feet since.
There is something about hardship (for example, a pandemic) that brings out the best in many people, and the many supporters of the Friends of Holcomb Farm’s Fresh Access program is a case in point.
Over the past year, Not Wanted has identified some of Granby’s worst invasive plants, discussed control strategies, and described alternative plants. We could cover many more invasives—the state list includes almost 100.
The drying barns at the former Davis Farm on North Granby Road are completely full with the first successful tobacco harvest.
Remember the wet spring and summer of 2019? Well, 2020 has been a little different.
The Winter 2020-21 CSA is open for purchase, and always sells out.
The Summer 2020 CSA shares sold out incredibly quickly and we know our customers are anxious to reserve their shares for next summer, so we have opened our online sales earlier than usual: Oct. 1 via the website (holcombfarm.org).
