Society in Transition

Society as a whole, is slowly moving towards a re-localization paradigm, even if many in industry fail to recognize it, or actively oppose it. We see this in our grocery stores with the ever-expanding range of local organic produce; Or in the increase in vibrant Farmer’s Markets and in the creative ingenuity of many of our rural citizens.

Our society has grown up around the paradigm of cheap energy and rapid mobility. This is changing no matter what anyone feels about it one way or the other. Many of us feel that the Grange should accept this changing paradigm, and become a major player and even leader in rural communities in transition.

The Green Grangers Interest Group is an Education, Information and Outreach Project of and sponsored by the Silverton, (No. 748), Macleay, (No. 293), Marys River, (No. 685), Rockford, (No. 501), and the Russellville, (No. 353), Oregon Granges.
