Meet the Team
Founded in 2018 by Providence-area flower lovers, the Farm now has a staff of two full timers and a half dozen part-timers.
Learn About the Farm
What Cheer Flower Farm is a nonprofit that grows, rescues and gives away 100,000 flowers per year from remediated, former factory land in Providence RI.
Ways to Support
Looking to get your hands in the dirt, to create bouquets or to help with other Farm tasks? We are seeking volunteers aged 14+ who can dedicate a regular time each week or month to helping us.
Giving Hope
“My client who was just diagnosed with breast cancer began to cry when I handed them to her and told her I couldn’t wait for her to get to our appointment together so I could give them to her. She kept insisting that I give them to someone who needed them more than she did, and I told her she did need them. She thanked me and said that no one has ever given her flowers. I LOVE What Cheer Flowers!!!!”
From St Mary’s Home for Children, Shepard’s Program staff
Bringing Smiles
“The lady’s face just lit up. It was as if a beacon of light was coming from the top of Federal Hill through the city. The Meals on Wheels clientele understand that they’re dependent on others to bring them the outside world “And to see that someone cares enough about them to go to the effort of cultivating these flowers and bringing [the bouquets] to them, I think it’s amazing.”
From Meals on Wheels volunteer Rebek Duhaime as quoted in Projo.com
