Grange Resources

The New York State Grange was founded in 1873. There are more than 150 local Granges in New York State with a total membership of over 4,000. The State Grange has members serving on many state committees. The State Soil and Water Conservation Committee, the Council of Agricultural Organizations, the Rural Schools Association are just to name a few. The Grange (Non-Profit Organization) is primarily found in rural communities, however some may be found within the limits of the State’s cities.
We are a community organization that is diverse and emphasizes strong community and family
ties as a basis for a healthy society. 

 

 The Grange began as an agricultural organization at a time when agriculture was the primary occupation of rural citizens. Today the Grange still closely mirrors the makeup of our rural communities, regardless
of their makeup, maintaining the commitment to improve them collectively, as well of the lives of its individual members. Agriculture is still important to the Grange and its members know that the economic welfare of rural communities is still strongly influenced by the economic stability of agriculture.

The Word Grange comes from a Latin Word for Grain, and is related to a Granary or Farm.
