San Juan Island Grange #966 begins its fall evening program series with Historic Orchards of the San Juans on Wednesday September 16, 2015 at the Grange Hall. The program begins at 7:00 pm, preceded by a potluck at 6:00 pm — all are welcome and encouraged to attend.
Autumn seems to have come early this year, and many of the old orchards in the islands are bearing fruit! Join historian Boyd C. Pratt for a history of fruit raising in the San Juans, with a focus on the remaining historic orchards that still bear fruit in the islands. Bring some fruit from a historic orchard you know and we’ll try to identify them!
