One of the largest roof-top farms in the Midwest, RISE Farms is located in the heart of downtown Wichita, Kansas. RISE Farms consists of a 15,000-square-foot urban farm and a 204-panel solar farm situated on the top floor of Fidelity Bank’s mixed-use RISE Car Park development. Here we grow a variety of produce in a no-waste manner to supply area restaurants with fresh, local ingredients. Additiona

lly, we partner with Fidelity Bank’s Office of Culture & Talent on employee engagement programs. RISE Farms is an urban extension of our sustainable farming mission. In addition to providing local produce, the green-roof farm lessens the urban heat island effect, curbs building energy costs and prevents excess storm water run-off. Coupled with the solar farm, which provides power to the parking structure and ground level retail locations, RISE is truly a beacon of environmental progress.

Glad to host Clearwater High School Ag Education & FFA students at RISE Farms! 🧑‍🌾👨‍🌾

The students asked insightful questions about specialty crops and rooftop production. 🏢

They shared their family farm experiences with the RISE crew while enjoying the view! 🌅

With tours winding down for 2024, we’re reflecting on all the school groups, service organizations, corporate teams and inquisitive neighbors we’ve had the good fortune of sharing the space at RISE Farm with this year. Our hearts are full of gratitude again this Thanksgiving season 🧡❤️💛

Have you been looking for the perfect opportunity to run your own farm? Firefly Farm, an environmental farm, presents a unique chance to lease a fully established, working, micro, market farm with 3 acres MOL under cultivation in 2025.

A second generation family farm, Firefly has built an impressive reputation over the last decade as an heirloom tomato farm using organic and regenerative practices. We like to think outside the box and can imagine several different lease configurations including partial use leases.

Like all turnips, the Hakurei turnip is a member of the Brassica family. This Japanese variety is sometimes referred to as a salad turnip, due to its crisp, delicious raw flavor.

Unlike other turnip varieties, hakurei do not need to be cooked. Turnips have a high water content, which helps keep the body hydrated and supports kidney function.

Grown organically at RISE Farms in downtown Wichita, local Hakurei turnips are so much better than what you get at the grocery store.

Order now and eat well this weekend with sun-grown, chemical free food from local farmers.
