Our historic Grange building is the space that brings us together. It is a place for us to hold our meetings and share food, laughs, and stories. It also allows us to offer an affordable space for public use such as classes, weddings, quinceañeras, and other special events. Members receive discounted rental rates.

The people are what makes our Grange so special. We welcome people from all walks of life. You don't have to be a farmer to be a Grange member. We are looking for folks who are community minded. We meet for potluck, presentations and business the 2nd Tuesday of each month 5:30-7:30 pm. We enjoy creating events that celebrate Mother Earth’s seasons for the wider communities of the Gorge.
