What are Impact Stories?
Three years and several months have passed since Hurricane Maria passed through Puerto Rico. We share stories of farmers who were recipients of donations from VisitRico's Regrow Program and ask them where they are now their goals and their current needs. We offer to host one of our Bridge Building Programs: Farm to Table or a Voluntourism Experience on their farms, to receive public support for their projects.
(The VisitRico Regrow Program received enough donations to provide recovery funds of $ 4,500 (1,500 x 3 months) to over 100 farmers and artisan processors.)
