The Historic Rockford Grange
A Gathering Place for All
in the Columbia Gorge
What is the Grange?
The Grange Movement is over 150 years old, started as a protest by farmers against the robber barons of the mid 1800’s and helping families back on their feet after the Civil War. The buildings we know as Granges began as community organizations with agricultural roots. Over the years, members have advocated for various causes, including railroad regulations, farm loans, and universal suffrage. Today, the National Grange remains active, with nearly 80,000 members and 2,000 local community Granges spread across 41 states. The Rockford Grange is over 104 years old, built in 1921. Whether you become a member of the Rockford Grange or not, you’re still welcome to attend public events here or rent our facilities for your next event, class, or workshop.

Coming up at the Rockford Grange
Annual Ice Cream Social
Aug. 2, 3-6 pm
We’re throwing a party for you! It’s our annual Ice Cream Social - an opportunity for all ages to gather over a cool cup or cone of ice cream or watermelon pizza.
What's watermelon pizza you ask? It's a pizza-shaped slice of watermelon with your choice of ice cream toppings. We'll have games, an art station, and music from 3-6 pm on August 2 at the Rockford Grange.
We’re hoping to connect with as many families as possible to hear from you what your greatest unmet needs are, as we develop our programming both at the Rockford Grange and at the Mid-Columbia Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, whose home is at the Grange.
This is a free event.
Be sure to share with your friends. We hope to see you there!
