HISTORIC PRESERVATION AWARDS
“The awards honor individuals and organizations that restore original structures and preserve traditions that form the historic fabric of Jefferson County.
Two types of awards are presented. The Mary P. Johnson Award is given to historic structure projects that meet the Secretary of Interior’s high standards for restoration. Certificates of Appreciation are given for a variety of preservation and restoration projects and are not limited to physical structures.”
All are invited to attend the awards event. For more information: http://www.jchsmuseum.org/Programs/HistoricPreservationAwards.html
Quimper Grange would like to acknowledge Edensaw Woods and Henery Hardware for generous discounts and advice that have helped immensely with the preservation of our hall.

Grange Month was busy. In April we hosted visitors from San Juan Island Grange # 966 for a Sunday brunch; sponsored a square dance; a contra dance; and our Grange month program, a screening of the movie “American Meat’ followed by a conversation about local meat production.
In addition, the Quimper Grange Food Bank Garden is gearing up for another year of growing food and increasing production.
