OUR CELEBRATION
WHAT IS FRESH ACCESS?
Check out this video, created by students from the University of Saint Joseph who conducted interviews at Holcomb Farm in 2022. It does a great job of explaining our Fresh Access program.

VISIT OUR TREE TRAIL
Comprised of both mature and newly-planted trees, the Holcomb Tree Trail is located on the east side of Simsbury Road across from the main Holcomb Farm complex. Trees are labeled and the trail is marked with interpretive signs that teach visitors about not only trees, but wildlife, geology and more.

Thank-you, John!Looking for a way to support small business this holiday season? Buy your 2024 summer CSA farm shares now!
Local farmers need the support as they plan for next season (and get ready for the long winter ahead). The photo is from Holcomb Farm CSA in Granby, where we've been members for 20+ years. They're a nonprofit, and they support the Fresh Access program, which donates "6 tons of produce annually to families experiencing a financial or health crisis."
And we have so many other friends doing great work in their communities, too! Consider supporting Barden Farm in New Hartford, Sub Edge Farm in Farmington/Avon, Sweet Acre Farm in Lebanon, or whatever farm serves your local community with fresh produce, meats, and dairy.

Thank YOU!
This summer we said good bye to our longest serving crew member Cassie. From a feral youth, she grew into a sweet affectionate beloved part of our family. She kept the barn clean and our hearts soft. She left big shoes to fill so we have adopted two cats to continue her important work. Please welcome sister and brother Mittens and Chase! They are feral rescues and we’re slowly acclimating them to life on the farm. Long may they reign!
