The Grange, or Order of the Patrons of Husbandry, was the heart of rural community life in America in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In one-on-one interviews and at social gatherings, members of the Middle Branch and Riverside Granges—both active in Vermont—reminisce about growing up in the Grange “family” and the challenge of preserving community in a world too busy to connect.
