Denver Green School Community Farm, by Sprout City Farms

Welcome! Sprout City Farms is an urban agriculture nonprofit in Denver, CO with the mission of cultivating educational urban farms that engage and strengthen communities. SCF envisions a thriving local food system supported by a network of city farms that nourish, and are nourished by, their surrounding community. In partnership with Denver Public Schools, SCF manages the Denver Green School Community Farm, a one-acre organic vegetable farm established in the spring of 2011 on the grounds of the Denver Green School (a public ECE-8th grade elementary and middle school in southeast Denver focused on teaching the concepts of sustainability). The farm provides fresh produce to the school cafeteria through a first-of-its-kind Farm to Cafeteria program, as well as to the community through a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) share program, weekly farm stand, and produce donations to the school backpack program and local food pantries. SCF also hosts numerous community events and volunteer days throughout the year in addition to offering educational programs to the school and community.
