The Growhouse Urban Agriculture Center in Phoenix, Arizona, was a vibrant community space that mixed urban farming with cooperative retail in the lively Roosevelt Row Arts District. Picture this: a place where you could nurture tomatoes and your wardrobe all in one visit. The center boasted community garden plots, a chicken coop, composting areas, an aquaponics system, and a bee hive—essentially a small farm amidst the city buzz.

Growhouse's mission was to educate locals on sustainable urban agriculture while providing a green escape in the urban jungle. The attached GROWop Boutique offered stylish vintage clothing and locally crafted items, making it a one-stop shop for green thumbs and fashionistas alike. It was a unique spot where growing food and fashion sense went hand in hand, proving that sustainability can be as trendy as it is essential​. 

The Season of Growhouse began in 2008 and ended in 2022 after our final CultivEAT Farm-to-Table Dinner.
