Downtown Denver farm Altius Farms feeds families, and a nonprofit's budget | 9news.com

"Eventually, though, JFS also hopes the farm makes enough money to help offset possible losses in grants.

'We know the amount of government grants we’ve gotten in the past; we’re not going to be getting in the future. We need to find other ways to fund, and we need to increase the other sources of funding.'"

By now I've managed to harvest radishes, tomatoes, garlic, some coriander, and today I got my first zucchini! I'm so happy with my little growing box, I feel like I'm learning a lot and tending to the box is a great way to unwind after work. #CityFarming

I harvested the first radishes from my growing box today! There's definitely room for some improvement, but I'm really happy with my little tasty radishes and I'm having fun figuring out how to grow things  #Helsinki #CityFarming
Very happy to have a little growing box on the university campus this summer! I am somewhat cursing the person who decided to grow peppermint in this box last year - it took me about an hour to get rid of the peppermint, but it was a good way to relax.
Now I've planted a mix of seeds and pre-grown plants and I'm going to see what actually grows here. Photos of before and after my afternoon of gardening!   #Helsinki #CityFarming
I'm a city tea farmer and this past summer was my first real harvest. I didn't pick enough to get through until next year but it seemed like such hard work at the time. Next year I'll do better. #tea #cameliasinensis #cityfarming #crops
