Community Gardens of QVC

Q Gardens
In 2016, as a way to enjoy the great outdoors while supporting the community, team members in QVC UK—Knowsley started
Q Gardens, their on-site vegetable patch. Pay It Forward, a program launched by Knowsley Council encouraging random acts of
kindness, supports Q Gardens, which donates 20% of its produce to the Knowsley Foodbank. QVC was the first business in
Knowsley to sign on to the initiative.

The green fingers of our QVC team members have donated over 70 pounds of organic, fresh vegetables. Support for the initiative
is also provided by Sodexo, QVC Knowsley’s caterer, and the Bistro canteen, which contributes food waste and coffee grinds for
composting. This donated fresh fruit and vegetables help realize Knowsley Foodbank’s mission of fighting food insecurity, which
affects one out of five people living below the UK poverty line.

The QVC West Chester QGarden provides team members with an opportunity to learn about organic gardening, foster a deeper
appreciation for sustainability, and show how one small act can have a big impact on the community. Our team members partner
with the Triskele’s Food For All program, which aims to create raised garden beds at businesses that agree to give at least
50 percent of the food grown to those in need.

In 2017 more than 30 QVC team members dedicated 284 hours to harvesting and managing the garden. Those hours allowed QVC
to harvest 2,236 pounds with a 78% donation rate—our highest yet. In 2017 the West Chester program impacted an estimated
8,900 meals in Chester County alone.

Since its launch in 2013, the QGarden has harvested almost 10,600 pounds of produce with a 77% donation rate—impacting over
42,000 meals.
