Craft Fair

 

We have a few spaces for the May 9th craft fair (rain date May 16th).  This is a juried event which means we try to have a certain number of every type of craft possible to provide a variety of wares / product and remove duplicates so both our crafters have a greater ability to sell and patrons have more selection to choose from.  Crafters can contact the chair through the email address at the top of this page.  Proceeds from this event will go to the driveway project.

 

Calendar 2026

 

Our calendar is an annual event based on a 31 day month but we have two BONUS Squares this year.   All of the prizes are gift certificates, that are valued at a minimum of $50 up to $100 .  We  started sales the 5th of April 2026 and will sell tickets from April 5th through August 31st. The drawing of winners will be on 9/1/2026. Distribution of prizes will start after all winners are contacted after the drawing. Proceeds from this event will go to the windows project.

 

We would like to thank all of our sponsors for their generosity for funding the calendar prizes!   We will be posting places / dates / times where you can make a $10 donation and be given a ticket to have a chance at winning one of 33 prizes this year.  Thank you for your support to help raise money to continue to restore the windows in Kellogg Hall.

On-Line Rain Barrel Sales

​

We are partnering with RainBarrel.ca to raise money for the window restoration project in Kellogg Hall.  You can follow the link below to take you to the offerings of this company where you can order and pay for on-line, rain barrels, roller composters, diverters, hoses, packages for double barrel collection of water to fill your pools, and  water your gardens and flower beds.  Prices are very affordable and you would be helping us raise money to continue to restore the windows in Kellogg Hall. 

The orders will be delivered the week of 5//27 and available for pickup on 5/30 at 250 State St, Granby MA.  We receive $10 for each barrel and composter purchased and 10% on any accessories you purchase with those items.  They can help you to recycle the rain water from your roof.  The composter can help you recycle kitchen scraps to make your own garden soil more friable and nutrient rich to feed your plants and flowers, and reduce your weekly curbside trash collection.   The barrels are repurposed, recycled food grade plastic containers, weigh about 20-22 pounds, can hold 47-55 gallons, and come in various colors.

Tag Sales

 

Are you cleaning or downsizing your home?

 

We are having two tag sales this year June 19-20,  and Aug 21--22, to help fund the driveway project. We are accepting donated items for this event please contact the fundraising committee at 413-255-0712, the face book page or via their email address list at the bottom of this page.  We will open the garage for you to drop off your donation, as we are currently collecting items and will continue right up until Aug 19th, if you would like to donate.  We are looking for clean, gently used items that will bring the highest possible return to allow us to replace and repair a deteriorating asphalt surface and re-lining, that could cost up to $100,000.  Please, no electronics, clothes, bedding, or other items that you would otherwise throw away that would defray expenses onto Granby Preservation Society Inc., thank you.

We have a theme for this years Festival!

 

CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS

 

We are putting out this information so anyone that would like to donate a tree or basket for the 2026 FOT&B can start collecting for their submission.  We all have family traditions, ethnic traditions, that are used to decorate and celebrate the season, so here is your chance to share and educate.  We also would like to invite anyone that likes to decorate to come and help 'Deck the Hall', which is started in October until the doors open for the event.  Come get your 'Xmas' started early, with the Master Decorator (Judy) of Kellogg Hall.  All proceeds go to our elevator project.
