The 2022 Grays River Grange Fair Booth

Pie Baking Challenge

When Grangers gather, you know the food will be great! The pies will be scrumptious, and joyful laughter will fill the air.

The pie challenge at the fair was a wonderful success with so many talented bakers in our midst.

Growing and sharing food is a Grange tradition and at our meetings, the agricultural reports are always a treat. A chance to hear about what is happening in and around the land where we live, work, and play.

The Finnish-American Folk Festival ~ 2022

The Grays River Grange was thrilled to be back at The Finnish-American Folk Festival for 2022!

We had a wonderful and exciting time preparing our Salmon Dinner and it was so popular this year, we ran out of dinners well before closing time at 3:00 pm.

The Finn Fest was packed with people and it was such a treat to be there with everyone celebrating our Sisu!

Thank you to everyone who came out to support the Finn Fest, to each person who purchased and enjoyed the delicious Salmon Dinner, to all the hard working Grangers who prepared the meal, and special thanks to Mike Backman for supplying the delicious, fresh salmon.

The proceeds from sales of the Salmon Dinner go to support the ongoing commitment to community service provided by the Grays River Grange. From maintaining and beautifying Ahlberg Park, Meserve Park, and The Grays River Grange Cemetery, to providing a safe and comfortable meeting space for local community organizations, hosting the annual Christmas Dinner, hosting candidate forums, and much more!

We are looking forward to Finn Fest 2024!

We Grangers are pledged to be quiet and peaceful folks who serve our community, and we are an all volunteer organization.
