WVC Fresh Produce Program Update
This year, the Sisters of Providence White Violet Center for Eco-Justice (WVC) ministry learned that the grant that supported growing and donating nearly half the produce from our organic gardens to people in need for the past two years would no longer be available to us. Last year, we grew over 11,000 pounds of organic, healthy, fresh produce to feed individuals and families. We were eager to continue this important ministry and anxious about the funding cut.

That’s when you, our donors, stepped up and saved the year!
Thanks to your quick response and generosity, WVC was able to continue the Fresh Produce Program and plant seeds on schedule! We grow almost 40 different vegetables, fruits, and herbs at the farm. With your support, about 22 of these will be grown in higher quantities, specifically to provide to food banks/pantries.

THANK YOU for believing in Love, Mercy, and Justice. Your gift has allowed us to continue to
provide nourishment to those in need.
