🚜 Granby Open Farm Day 🚜
2025-09-06 10:00 - 16:00 | Farm Store & CSA Barn, 111 Simsbury Road, West Granby, CT, 06090, United States
Holcomb Farm is excited to participate in this Granby tradition — and this year we’re turning it into a weekend-long event, with our Holcomb Hoedown the following day!
Open Farm Day is a free, family-friendly day full of farming fun! Farms all around Granby will open their doors to the public and invite you to experience demonstrations, farm-fresh food, games, activities, and of course to meet the animals. It feels like a town-wide fair plus a scavenger hunt all in one – with so much buzz in the air and new things to discover!
Here at Holcomb Farm, our Farm Store, located at 111 Simsbury Road, will be open from 10am-6pm, and we will offer other activities as well, including:
11:00 am: Farmer Talk. Farmer Joe will tell visitors about all the varied equipment we use to produce a wide array of vegetables at Holcomb Farm. (Meet in the field next to our CSA barn parking lot, at 111 Simsbury Road, at 11 am.)
3:00 pm: Trivia Contest. Teams of any size and age can compete to test their farming knowledge. The winning team will be awarded a loaded Holcomb Farm swag bag! (Contest will take place in the back of our PYO field, behind the CSA Barn at 111 Simsbury Road. Store staff can direct you to the right spot!)
Come out for Open Farm Day on September 6, and then return to Holcomb Farm to kick your heels up at the Holcomb Hoedown on September 7! We look forward to seeing you on the farm!
