In the spring of 2011, Sprout City Farms began to establish and maintain a one-acre farm site on the grounds of The Denver Green School (DGS) in SE Denver. Working in collaboration with DGS and Denver Urban Gardens the farm provides education outreach to students while providing greens and vegetables to the school cafeteria and local food banks. Sprout City Farms hosts a mini at-school-market each week and offers both a veggie CSA share and an Ela Family Farms’ CSA fruit share.
Sprout City Farms now has two pick up sites. One is at the Green Schoolon Wednesday evenings from 4-6 at Denver’s Green School. The other CSA pick up site is at Mountair Park at 5620 W. 14th Ave. in Lakewood, CO. The pick up hours are the same, on Wednesdays from 4pm-6pm. Mountair Park is home to Mountair Park Community Farm, an urban farming partnership between the City of Lakewood and Sprout City Farms! The farm creates numerous opportunities for healthy food access and education with community partners in the area.
