The Green Homemakers Club was organized in April of 1926 at the Green Consolidated School in Green Township, with the assistance of Mrs. Currie, the County Extension Agent. The first name adopted was that of "Jolly Co-workers" but this was soon changed to that of "Green Homemakers Club."

Charter members of the club were as follows: Mesdames Alfred Kjelland, William Kjelland, Lars Kjelland, Bernt Berntson, George Hager, Mort Mortenson, Hans Hansen, Emil Vondrachek, Mayme Gallipo, Harold Bouch, Elmer Wicks and Andrew Modahl. The average membership has remained at 18 over the years.

Mrs. George Hager was the first president. Miss Mary Laycock, Extension Agent in Barnes County for many years is remembered for her "down-to-earth" and practical approach to homemaking and living. An enviable record has been made by the members of the Green Homemakers Club over the years. Four members, Mrs. Robert Brock, Mrs. Richard Hager, Mrs. Harold Kiefeet. and Mrs. Frank Zaun are listed in the "Directory of Talented People of North Dakota." Mrs. Kenneth Welken and Mrs. Harold Mortenson have served as president of the Barnes County Homemakers Council. Mrs. Hans Hansen was elected State President of the North Dakota Homemakers Council in 1951 and 1952.

The Green Homemakers club continues its fine record of community and home service, promoting civic as well as better living projects among its members and neighbors.
