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.

Conservation Conversation: Feeding the Soil
The key to sustainable success is feeding the soil. Join our own Farm Manager, Joe O’Grady, to learn about numerous soil management strategies utilized to promote sustainable success at Holcomb Farm. These include the use of tailored cover crops, crop rotation, and the application of soil supplements specifically formulated for Granby fields, based on soil analysis and testing. Hear about Holcomb Farm’s current collaboration/study with The American Farmland Trust. After the presentation, welcome special guest Dr. Josh Anderson, Holcomb Farm friend and author of the soon-to-be-released book “O-Horizon, Care/Work of American Soil.” Dr. Anderson will be available to answer questions regarding soil health and conservation efforts. Register to attend. Sponsored by Granby Public Library, Granby Conservation Commission, and The Friends of Holcomb Farm.
