On May 28, 2021 Perennial Planters and (our seconding club) Newport Garden Club members came together for the Unveiling of the CheerMobile, a tour of the Farm and to arrange 10 vases of flowers for a Charity delivery that afternoon in the new van. Already, since February 16th, 2021, What Cheer Flower Farm had given away nearly 18,000 stems to deserving organizations across the state. The nan has now made it possible for the organization to expand it’s list of organizations it serves by creating the capacity to deliver flowers to those who need it the most… anywhere in Rhode Island.
By late July of 2020 the Perennial Planters was able to deliver their check for 10K to WCFF. In early March, 2021 What Cheer Flower Farm’s new Executive Director, Destenie Vital, purchased the Cheer Mobile van (a 2019 Dodge ProMaster) from Car Max in Warwick, Rhode Island for approximately $25,400. and the Perennial Planters/GCA funds helped to raise these funds plus more than 15K more, that followed.
Photographs from the 2020 Farm’s gardens were used to brand the Flower Design across the new van. The van has been used to travel the state of Rhode Island and the greater Providence area to spread cheer and pick up large amounts of donated flowers from local wholesale florists, flower farms, as well as, national retailers. The Farm now delivers to nearly 30 organizations from all over Rhode Island and the list is growing every week.
In early July the Van’s interior custom shelving was installed. Now the custom signage for the Parking Space by the new Barn will be designed and installed and will include “2020 GCA Founders Fund Finalist Grant from Perennial Planters Garden Club”. Another Unveiling will be due to inspect the van, signage, and the amazing Farm developments!
