We are bringing together our community — investors, entrepreneurs, partners, and supporters, current and future — to celebrate all that we have accomplished together and still have yet to do to strengthen our local food system for all! Join us!
The PVGrows Investment Fund has marked a major milestone — $1.25 million raised and financing for over 25 local farm and food entrepreneurs. The Fund is actively seeking more investors to raise the second half — an additional $1.25 million to continue this work.
It has been three years since we launched the PVGrows Investment Fund! Come join us for:
- Delicious food and drink from Kosinski Farms and PVGIF borrowers;
- A tour of the winery;
- An update on the PVGrows Investment Fund;
- Stories from PVGIF investors and borrowers; and,
- The opportunity to celebrate our community!
The beautiful Raven Hollow Winery, one of our first borrowers, is located in Westfield at 436 Russellville Road — just a hop, skip, and a jump away. It’s closer than you think!
Please RSVP so we know you are coming at bit.ly/PVGIF_3!
