What is the Grange?
The origins of the Grange were based in agriculture; today the Grange focuses on serving local communities and also keeps true to its roots by promoting local agriculture and agricultural education.
Local Granges donate to and support the projects of the State Grange. The Massachusetts State Grange partners with organizations such as 4-H, FFA, Massachusetts Agriculture in the Classroom, and the UMass Agriculture Learning Center.

Gardening Workshop - Plant Propagation and Simple Stem Cuttings
Friday, September 11 at 7pm
Attendees will learn about the various types of plant propagation. Seed sowing, simple stem cuttings and even grafting will be covered in a broad sense. This time of year we often take stem cuttings of tender plants to overwinter. Bring your own potted plant (geranium, coleus, fuchsia, Rosemary, mint, etc.) to share cuttings with others or take cuttings from some of the plants we provide. Everyone will leave with a cutting(s) in a pot that can be rooted at home.
