Holcomb Farm Events
Holcomb Farm is a hub of activity in West Granby. Visit on a summer weekend and you’ll likely see a wedding taking place in our North Barn Pavilion, CSA shareholders cutting flowers in the field, hikers on our trails, families picking up their weekly groceries in our Farm Store, and a holistic living workshop taking place in our greenhouse.

Arbor Day: Learn How to Plant a Tree!
April 27 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am
- Meet at farmhouse parking lot located at 113 Simsbury Road
- Rain date: April 28
Join Holcomb Tree Trail volunteers—who are also UConn Master Gardeners—as they demonstrate how to plant a tree and give tips on how to keep it alive and thriving. They will provide a brief history of Arbor Day, the importance of trees, and then get into the details of tree planting: explaining how to dig a proper-sized hole, watering, animal protection, mulching, and answer all your tree-related questions. Join us for this free, any-age educational event. Meet at the farmhouse parking lot and the group will walk to the planting site, about 1/4 mile walk. (No dogs please.)
