Our History

Children’s Farms in Action (CFA) is dedicated to helping Far Northeast Denver establish urban farms for city kids. CFA was established in 2014 to transform food desert communities by developing small-scale urban farms to empower children and youth to grow food for their community. CFA’s programming and collaboration with the community are at the heart of the organization. Our programs collaborate with schools, churches, and residents, teach self-care through plant care, offer hands-on sustainable agriculture experience, integrate education into the curriculum, provide a safe space for exploration, bring individuals together for farm-to-table meals, and deliver fresh produce to food pantries.
