Our Wish Lists

There are many items that could enhance the programs at Bittersweet Farms but, as with most organizations, the budget does not allow for everything. If you, your church, organization, or business would like to help, please contact Melissa Tilkins at 419.875.6986, ext. 1241, or send email to mtilkins@bittersweetfarms.org.

Donations of gift cards and money are always accepted. If your donation is specifically intended for other than the Whitehouse location, please indicate that on your check or gift card. All donations are tax deductible and a receipt will be sent to you for your records.

Commerce Paper Company, Toledo, Ohio donates high quality paper to the art studio. Residents and individuals in the day program who participate in art are able to paint and draw and make cards regularly. Bittersweet Farms has not had to buy paper in three years thanks to Commerce Paper.

Hope United Methodist Church, Whitehouse, Ohio, donated great art supplies that the residents and day program participants will use in the art studio and in their homes. This is a wonderful gift!! Also, every Wednesday, Hope United Methodist Church donates a meal to our residents.

These gifts are much appreciated. A heartfelt thanks to all of those involved with these donations.
