SUPPORT THE FRIENDS OF HOLCOMB FARM
The Friends of Holcomb Farm is a nonprofit organization that oversees the work it takes to keep this farm thriving. By donating to the Friends, you: support sustainable farming and land conservation; help neighbors in need; support local farms and farmers; and play a role in making sure this historic farm remains a part of Granby’s rural landscape.
SUPPORT FRESH ACCESS
As our nation's battle against COVID-19 continues, the effects are far-reaching. Unemployment, sickness, and the closing of schools have made feeding a family difficult for many. To meet this increased need, we doubled the amount of produce we provided to social service agencies and area nonprofits through Fresh Access this year. But we're not out of the woods yet.
If you are able, please consider donating to the Friends of Holcomb Farm's Fresh Access program.

Follow Our CSA
Today is Giving Tuesday – a global day of giving. We hope you will support a cause close to home – the nonprofit Friends of Holcomb Farm. Your support will help us make improvements to our Farm infrastructure and fund the maintenance of our woodlands and trails -- including our Tree Trail -- preserving access to outdoor recreation and education for thousands of people annually. It will also help us continue to serve neighbors facing a health or financial crisis. All of this helps keep this beautiful 312-acre, environmentally-responsible, historic farm a vital and integral part of Granby’s landscape. You can make your gift online or by mail. Go to holcombfarm.org and click on “Donate.” Then, if you’re willing, share this post with your friends and tell them why you stepped up to support us. Thank you!
It begins! Seed Ordering for 2022 is underway. Organic Soil Mix from @vermontcompost is already ordered and we’ll spend over $14,000 on seeds in the coming weeks. Then comes amendments, field supplies, projects and on and on. But that’s the beauty of CSA - no loans necessary, just the support of our members. Thank you! Shares are still available so if you haven’t signed up yet, hop to it and cross that chore off your list.

I hope Cassie makes some great selections.
This Thanksgiving, we are thankful for our supporters, who help us fight food insecurity. And we are thankful for organizations like Wheeler, who help us get our produce onto the tables of the people who need it. We hope each and every one of you has a wonderful -- and delicious -- Thanksgiving.
Great stuff!
