March/April Meeting 2020

3/22/2020

 
Thought for the month:
                                  On good work, from Wendel Berry
To work without pleasure or affection, to make a product that is not both useful and beautiful, is to dishonor God, nature, the thing that is made and whomever it is made for.

So whatever we do, let us strive to do it well. - Subordinate grange manual

Agriculture  - Another exotic bug - Asian giant hornet

Pomona Report - Candidate fair set for May 3rd at Beavercreek has been postponed till the fall general election.  Pies and servers will still be needed.
