In 1934, ninety-nine Rogue Valley farmers invested $10 each to form a cooperative. Little did they know, decades years later, Grange Co-op would grow into a multi-million dollar business providing services to patrons throughout Southern Oregon and Northern California.
Committed to the agricultural community, Grange Co-op continues to expand with new products and services every year. Grange Co-op’s feed mill is the only certified organic mill in southern Oregon. It provides local farmers and ranchers with sacked or bulk Rogue Quality Feeds and certified organic feed produced locally to best meet local needs. Grange Co-op has Rogue Feeds available for horses, cattle, sheep, goats, hogs, rabbits, poultry, emus and llamas as well as a complete line of straight grains.
Since the 60’s, when the bulk fertilizer plant was built next to the feed mill, Grange Co-op has been providing farmers with top-quality Rogue Fertilizers. Grange Co-op offers conventional and organic fertilizers which are blended at the plant to meet the demands of our region. Other products offered to the agricultural community include crop protection products like herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides, and rentals of fertilizer spreaders. The local agricultural community and landscapers not only trust Grange Co-op for the best products, but also receive expert advice, consultation and other services from Grange Co-op’s Fertilizer & Professional Products including field calls and soil samples.
Grange Co-op carries a wide selection of products including: farm and ranch; lawn and garden; pet food and supplies; wild bird food and supplies; unique gift items; holiday-themed gifts; patio furniture, barbecues and supplies; clothing and footwear for the whole family; as well as basic hardware. With years of experience and knowledge, the staff has built a reputation on giving the personal touch when providing customers with valuable information.
