The farm is protected under the Farm and Ranch Protection Program and can be used for agricultural purposes only. Improvements made during the current owners tenure include extensive breasting back of the bushes and boundary hedgerows to add back usable acreage, clearance of trees and large rocks, and the installation of a new electric perimeter fence and gates for the section of the farm south of the brook (about 19 acres), also opening up areas all along the tree line for extensive cattle shade/silvopasture. The property is located in Granby, Ct, a rural town known for its commitment to open space and agriculture.
