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.

We sent off our beloved crew member, Georgia, to Vermont this past week so she can finish off the summer with a job at @intervalecommunityfarm and then continue her education at UVM. The crew becomes like a family to each other which makes saying goodbye to such an amazing and hardworking coworker so much harder. Georgia has blessed the farm with her warm smiles and laughter, hard work, and farming knowledge for over a year and we cannot wait to see where she’ll end up in the future!
And a great example for other Granby kids - Holcomb Farm is a great place to “grow” !!
Georgia Mcdougall you will be missed not only at Holcomb Farm but in MY kitchen!!! I know you and Spencer will have a blast transforming Burlington with your greatness! Love you.
You will surely be missed, Georgia, as you brought so much positivity to the farm. It seems foolish to say good luck in your new adventures, because there’s no doubt that you will succeed in whatever you put your mind to. Have a great time!
Good Good Luck!!
Excellent
Winter squash is in the ground!!! Delicata, butternut, spaghetti, honey boat and more! After this heat wave the thought of the cooler temperatures of fall seem soooo far away. #fall #winteriscoming #squash #directseeding #wintersquash
Can you guess what the crew is planting?! It thrives in the sun, comes from the Brassicaceae family, and is a best planted at a 45 degree angle. Last hint... this is a year of perennials!
P.S Don’t forget to mark your calendars, only 10 more days till we open!!!!!!
