Community Knitting

,​The Dartmouth Grange accepts donations from knitters and crocheters who make warm hats, scarves, etc. for people who need them. Donations go to organizations nearby and farther away. A donation box is found in the entry hall of our Grange Hall. Items may be brought to any of our Grange meetings. If desired, write us a note so we know who was kind enough to make a donation.
