A Distinguished Grange

Central Union Grange #559 is a small Grange in the heart of California’s Central Valley.  Our home base is Lemoore, Ca, but our membership comes from an area over 90 miles across. We have members of all ages, including farmers, teachers, retirees, newlyweds, and business people.  We come together in service to our community, supporting issues that resonate with our membership, and family fellowship.  What makes us different from many Granges is for the past 30 years or more we have not owned a hall. We meet once a month at the Veteran’s Memorial Hall in Lemoore and we share a closet with several other groups where we store our regalia.

In 2018 we applied for and received the Distinguished Grange honor from the National Grange. In 2019 a committee made up of a wide cross-section of our membership worked together to submit our application and we were again selected as one of 32 Distinguished Granges across the nation.  We are looking forward to submitting a new application this year.

We are proud of what we have accomplished and we look forward to helping re-establish a Grange presence in adjoining Fresno and Kings Counties.
