Geoffrey Holt ((1941-03-27)March 27, 1941 – (2023-06-06)June 6, 2023) was an American groundskeeper, miller, factory worker, and town eccentric. He gifted US$3.8 million to his town of Hinsdale, New Hampshire, upon his death.

Holt's wealth was unknown to his neighbors. His fortune came from investing a payout from a grain mill, where he was a production manager. Later in life he worked as a groundskeeper in a mobile home park where he resided, choosing to navigate town aboard a lawn mower rather than using a car.
