FARMINGTON — Farmington Grange No. 12 members recently visited the Cascade Brooke School to present new dictionaries to all of the third graders. Thousands of dictionaries have been distributed since the Grange has started this program.
Wednesday Workers and Warm Ups, a group of Grange ladies and assorted friends, have been working on a quilt they will be raffling off during the next Farmington Fair.
The WWWs meet from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. every first and third Wednesdays of the month until May at the grange hall on Bridge Street. Light refreshments and soup are provided, and everyone is welcome to attend. People can bring their own projects to work on or just socialize, or join in.
The group is also making repairs to its plastic storm windows and is willing to help people repair their own, according to a news release from Bonnie Clark with the Grange.
Grange members also plan to have a flea market in the spring, where tables will be offered to vendors to sell their wares. Although antique dealers are being targeted, some crafters may also be allowed.
The Grange ladies will also sell sandwiches and refreshments as well as raffle tickets on two handmade quilts. More information will come as plans develop. Funds raised will go to improvements and upkeep of the Grange.
For information call Clark at 207-778-1416.
