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.

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.
