Flourish Farms, located at the Growhaus, is a 3,200 sq ft aquaponics farm built in 2011 and was operated by JD and Tawnya Sawyer up until 2015. In 2015 the Growhaus took over full time operation of the farm. The GrowHaus is a non-profit urban market, food hub and education center located in the Elyria-Swansea community in Denver, CO. The farm provides produce and fish to the local food basket program and market operated by the GrowHaus in order to provide fresh healthy food to the residents of Elyria-Swansea.
In addition to supporting the neighborhood, produce is sold to top local restaurants in downtown Denver who all operate within 5 miles of the farm. Click here to see a list of restaurant partners featuring Flourish Farms greens and fish.
