The Sonoma Valley Grange Hall is a wreck — as planned. Renovation of the Hall, at 18627 Highway 12 in the Springs, started off with a bang February 21 as a team of dedicated Grangers starting demolition on the 100+year old building.
The Grange Hall Renovation Project is slated to upgrade this historic facility with a fully certified commercial kitchen, along with updated bathrooms and new roof. The Grange is still working to meet their fundraising goal of $250,000 in order to complete the renovation. To get involved visit sonomavalleygrange.com
