Home, Home on the Grange

While most communities have town halls, Prunedale operates a bit differently. The Prunedale Grange is no doubt the heart of Prunedale. You go there to vote, it has a remarkable history, and if anything important is going on in town you'd go there to find out about it. The grange was originally opened in the late 1800s as a meeting spot for local farmers. As members of the grange, they would work together for political rights and the grange would be their place to organize community events. This Prunedale landmark serves many of the same purposes for the community now as it did over a hundred years ago. The Prunedale Grange can be found on the top of Moro Road.
