White Violet Center and Equine Studies

I  have a warm spot in my heart for Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College and the Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods.  I graduated from The Woods in 1994 with a degree in gerontology.  (As my husband said at the time, "You'll be in the forefront of your field."--I was 48 at the time.)  That being said I'd like to share with you some of the wonders of the Woods.

One of them is the Sisters of Providence White Violet Center for Eco-Justice.  It's a non-profit education center focusing on oranic agriculture, spiritual ecology and social advocacy.  It was founded in 1996 abay Sister of Providence Ann Sullivan.

The White Violet Farm Alpacas herd was started with six donated alpacas in 1998.  All the fiber from theherd is processed and utilized.  Staff members and volunteers spin, knit and weave handmade products and the center offers fiber workshops to teach these skills.






The Mari Hulman George School of Equine Studies 



Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College is the only college in Indiana to offer a degree in equine studies. The Mari Hulman George School of Equine Studies offers a well-rounded  education in equine study and business management.  It's great to walk the campus and see these beautiful horses grazing, running and playing.  


Oh, but it's just wonderful to walk the grounds of The Woods anytime!
