The Granby Land Trust thanks 🙏 the amazing crew of volunteers who spent part of their weekend working on our Katan-Ensor Preserve in West Granby as part of our GLT Preserve Our Properties Day. The GLT relies on volunteers for the monitoring and maintenance of its properties. (With 2,225 acres of land owned (almost 3,300 protected), this is no small feat!) Thank you to our awesome GLT Members (from left to right): Skip Morgan, Michael Large, Ron Dufrane, Gary Adamson, Austin White, and Mike Larsen. And thank you to Dave Emery for managing the crew and acting as photographer. Are you interested in volunteering at our next work party?
