The White Violet Center for Eco-Justice, a ministry of the Sisters of Providence since 1996, is teaching, caring, inspiring for all creation. The Center provides opportunities for participating in creating systems that support justice and sustainability, locally and globally. Through organic agriculture, eco-justice education and social advocacy, White Violet Center strives to promote an awareness and way of living which support all life. We welcome people of all faith traditions (or none), ethnicities, backgrounds, socio-economic demographics, sexual and gender orientations. White Violet Center for Eco-Justice is located at beautiful Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Indiana, 80 miles west of Indianapolis just a few miles off of Interstate 70. On our certified organic farm we grow a variety of vegetables and flowers which we sell at our local farmers market and in our farm store. We also work with several area food pantries to help get fresh produce and eggs to our food-insecure population. In addition to our garden we have a flock of egg-laying hens and herd of alpacas that are sheared each year for their luxurious fiber. We are a teaching farm. Our internships are an immersive, practical experience where you’ll learn firsthand about local agriculture, animal husbandry and fiber arts under the direction of our team of dedicated and caring people. You’ll also work and live side-by-side with other interns from all over the country. We can accommodate up to eight interns at a time. Our summer and fall internship applications are on our site now! Summer internship waitlist applications are being accepted.

Our alpacas are a vital part of our organic farm, so this is an opportunity to learn more about care of earth as well as a way to be of service. Volunteers are needed to help clean alpaca fiber, "skirting." Once a year our alpacas are sheared. All of their fiber needs to be sorted and, occasionally, dirt or hay needs to be removed from it. The fiber is sorted into firsts, seconds, and thirds depending on the length and quality. Training is provided for this fun and contemplative activity! Great for a group or solo volunteering. Email or call with any questions or to get started! Volunteer@spsmw.org 812-535-2878
