Progressive Granges
National Grange Inertia in addressing sustainable agriculture practices continues to hamper recruitment of new members.
|
Progressive Granges in California They are fostering an older time tested method of sustainable agriculture that works with the land, watersheds, and fisheries. We share some common goals of supporting historic preservation, alternative energy, sustainable agriculture, building community, consensus problem-solving, folk music, healthy organic food, and conversation. Individually, some rent to a variety of local nonprofits, or sponsor diverse programs of lecture, music and dance. Some have recycling programs, composting, or have installed alternative energy saving technology's. The Grange Movement was a way to support farmers. Now, years later Progressive Granges across California are defining a new agenda. |
