About JEC

Just Earth – Cincinnati is an outgrowth of the work of Judy Tensing, SNDdeN, co-founder of Venice on Vine, a restaurant/catering business whose primary mission was to create economic justice by training individuals with challenging histories for competitive employment. After closing this venture in 2022 after 40+ years of service, Sister Judy and the team surrounding her have turned their attention to environmental justice and the impact of climate change on our communities.

Our Vision

Just Earth – Cincinnati acts as a catalyst, empowering residents to make the Cincinnati region a vibrant Community in which just, reciprocal and harmonious relationships with the Earth, her people, her creatures, and her ecosystems are cultivated
