Happy last day of Passover. "On Passover, we recall the Exodus, when God freed us from exile in Egypt. But we are in exile today too, living in a world that has never been this spiritually dark. The last day of Passover to be Moshiach. It is an auspicious day to pray for the time when the world will finally reach its perfect state, and to resolve to do whatever we can to make it a reality."

She advocated for the humane treatment of farm animals!

In recognition of the International Year of the Woman Farmer and Women's History Month, today we honor Dr. Temple Grandin.

Innovation in agriculture doesn’t just improve efficiency; it can transform animal welfare.

Temple Grandin revolutionized livestock handling through humane, low-stress facility designs now used worldwide. Her groundbreaking work improved animal well-being, worker safety, and farm productivity, reshaping industry standards across the livestock sector.

Her legacy proves that thoughtful design and compassion can change agriculture for the better.

Agriculture Literacy Week: Agriculture Heroes

Farmers aren’t the only people who help bring food to our tables.

Truck drivers, veterinarians, scientists, equipment operators, and many others all play important roles in agriculture.

Today’s challenge for kids:
What job in agriculture sounds interesting to you?
Share what you would like to do if you worked in agriculture someday.

Thank You to all our Volunteers - This ! Some Grange volunteers aren't even members, but they believe in the mission and projects we work on - Veteran Vincenzo Valastro deserves an EXTRA Thank You, because he organizes an annual Donation of warm clothes & goods for Homeless Veterans. Upton Grange joined Vinny & helped him reach his $7,000. goal this year. We presented him with the 2025 Upton Community Service Award at the Upton Senior Center Christmas Carol Sing-a-long.
If you’ve ever given your time through the Grange, know this: your efforts matter, and they are deeply appreciated. Thank you!
