Agriculture / Conservation News: Looking at Past Programs
April 1, 2021 -- During this pandemic I have been fortunate enough to spend time going through old program books for Enfield Grange starting with the 1906 issue and thought I would share some of the program ideas with you.

The Agriculture / Conservation Committee will be offering the following activities for all Granges to participate in:
1. Donation to Heifer International, with total donations from throughout the year to be presented at the Banquet at the Connecticut State Grange Annual Session.
2. Agriculturally Related Resolutions -- If a Community or Pomona Grange endorses any resolutions related to agriculture they can be submitted to the State Grange for action at the annual session by directing those resolutions to the Director of the Agriculture Committee.
Heifer International - "Ending Hunger, Caring for the Earth"...
Heifer International's mission is to work with communities to end hunger and poverty and to care for the earth. Heifer does this by providing appropriate livestock, training and related services to small-scale farmers and communities worldwide.
The mission of the Connecticut State Grange Agriculture Committee is to promote excellence in Connecticut agriculture by nurturing interest, education, and recognition of excellence in agriculture throughout Connecticut and by recommending and/or endorsing legislative positions that enhance the future of Connecticut's Agriculture.
