The Poncha Springs Grange 417 Order Of Patrons Of Husbandry

The National Grange of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry, is a social organization in the United States that encourages families to band together to promote the economic and political well-being of the community and agriculture. The Grange is a community and an agricultural advocacy group with a national scope. Its mission is for strengthening individuals, families, and communities through service, education, nonpartisan grassroots advocacy, and agricultural awareness. As a non-partisan organization, the Grange supports only policies, never political parties or candidates. Although the Grange was founded to serve the interests of farmers, because of the shrinking farm population the Grange has begun to broaden its range to include a wide variety of issues, and anyone is welcome to join the Grange.
