Give sustenance (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nourish

(Other definitions for nourish that I've seen before include "Provide with food for growth" , "Supply with food, keep well" , "Foster or cherish, often with food" , "Give sustenance to" , "encourage growth" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, The Sunday Times and The Times.
