Building for the future!
The Freshwater Grange Hall has been the hub of the Wrangletown community since 1885.
Freshwater Grange has been renovating and upgrading our hall with the goal of becoming an Emergency Safety Resource Center. In an emergency or disaster, we would be ready to provide the community with shelter, power to charge medical devices, warmth, a kitchen, operating refrigerators to keep food and medicine cold, and as a clean air station. During an emergency the Grange will act as a hub for services as outlined in the Community Emergency Response Trainings (CERT) and by the Humboldt County Office of Emergency Services.
Within the last year, thanks to the support of our community and generous donors, we have completed our goals to install heat pumps, solar panels, and new gutters. We refinished our 90 year old floor, upgraded our bathroom, stage, lighting, and so much more! We are incredibly grateful for so much outpouring of support.
The next phase of building upgrades that are necessary for us to become an Emergency Safety Resource Center are even more ambitious. We are working on designs that will bring our hall up to 21st century standards and still retain our 19th century charm.

Solar Power System
Installing a new solar power system has been our most ambitious project we’ve taken on in recent years. Rise Energy worked with us while we were fundraising and made the whole process smooth and stress free. We are grateful for the generous donation and excellent service!

New Gutters
Last winter was a wet one! Unfortunately, that excess water was gathering in our basement which really put a damper on rentals and events. Air Tight did a great job creating the gutter system that met out needs.

90 year old Floor Refinished
After 9 decades our floor was beginning to absorb liquids into the wood causing stains and damage. Karges Flooring did amazing work at a great price. The crew were professional, personable, and went above and beyond. Thank you Karges! What a beautiful floor!
