It's membership renewal time! The Friends of Holcomb Farm is the nonprofit, member-based organization that oversees all the ways in which the farm serves people in Granby and beyond. Your annual gift of $35 or more makes you a member, and helps support the important work we do. We hope you'll join us, and connect with this special place -- this "jewel of Granby" -- Holcomb Farm.

NEW CSA & FARM STORE- OPEN WEDNESDAYS - SATURDAYS 10AM-6PM!
Holcomb Farm is a nonprofit farm that grows without chemicals or pesticides -- not even organically approved ones. In our store, we offer our own produce, as well as dairy, meats, and artisan goods from other local farms and makers. You do not have to belong to our CSA to shop in our Farm Store!
We are now officially open in our new space at 87 Simsbury Road in West Granby! Come see all we have to offer!
HOURS: Wed. - Sat., 10am-6-pm
VISIT OUR TRAILS
More than 10 miles of woodland trails and more than two miles of mowed meadow paths crisscross the 300 acres of woodlands, farmland, meadows, and streams that make up Holcomb Farm. And because the farm is located between Granby Land Trust properties and the McLean Game Refuge -- forming a significant area of permanently protected open space -- Holcomb Farm trails provide access to other trail systems, as well.
Follow Our CSA
Spend a beautiful fall day enjoying the colors, views, and changing of the seasons on the Holcomb Farm Tree Trail 🍁🍂The Holcomb Farm Tree Trail will host a guided foliage hike on October 17 starting at 10 AM from the main campus parking lot. There will be two options of one or two hour duration. The first hour will be in the open fields along mowed paths and will include touring the state trees for the original 13 states. People can finish at this point, or continue into the wooded trails for an additional hour of hiking and viewing.
The pace will be casual, well suited for families and dog walkers (with their well behaved, leashed dogs).
No registration is necessary.

Our Winter CSA is open for signups!! This year is the winter share is better than ever because it will be in our brand new farm store! Rather than once a month and all at once, winter share members will be able to come to the farm every week, every other week, or once a month to get their share — CSA member’s choice!
The winter share is full of storage crops and greenhouse greens to get you through the winter while eating seasonally and locally. Scroll through the photos to see some of our crop options from years past! (These photos were taken in our old, unheated, open-to-the-elements, CSA barn! The winter share will now be in the new farm store)
The perks of joining the winter share are 1. Supporting a local, holistic, chemical-free farm all year round 2. CSA members save money in the long run because you pay wholesale prices rather than farm market prices 3. It’s delicious and full of nutrients!!
To learn more and sign up visit our website and go to “summer/winter CSA”. You can find the sign up form and online sign up link there! Click the link in the bio 🤗
We are almost full so dont wait!! And if you don’t want to do the winter share put still want to support local, our farm store will be open 10 am to 6 pm Wednesday through Saturday until after the holidays!

Bok Choy half the size of a human?! We had some monster heads coming out of the field this week weighing close to 5 lbs each 😱 Miso soup or stir fry anyone? This time of year is spent cleaning up the fields, cover cropping, harvesting the last of the summer crops before the frosty temps stick around, and harvesting the fall crops. Season of change is here and the veggies show it! Come on by the farm store 10 am to 6 pm to get fresh veg you can trust!
