Nestled In The Middle Of An Urban Farm, This Tiny Colorado Cafe Is An Enchanting Day Trip Destination

The Centennial State is famous for its rich agricultural scene, but have you ever seen it up close? No, there is no need to drive to an orchard on the Western Slope or to a wheat field on the Eastern Plains, as central Colorado is home to this day trip-worthy urban farm and cafe:

Welcome to the aptly named Grow + Gather.

Located in Englewood, Grow + Gather offers one of the most unique dining concepts in the state, as this modern yet charming eatery is housed on a carefully curated urban farm.

Before becoming its own sustainable entity, the space housing Grow + Gather was a historic auto shop that was completely renovated to include not only the farm and restaurant but also a market and coffee shop.

When you visit Grow + Gather, you will find several garden areas that include everything from a pollinator section to herb and veggie gardens to a hydroponic room, greenhouse, and fragrant rose garden.

If you think seeing the fruits of these gardens is cool, wait until you get a taste!

As "big fans of the local food movement," Grow + Gather incorporates what it grows into its craveable dishes a la sandwiches, salads, soup, dessert, and in-season specials.

When you visit, don't forget to also check out the market and coffee shop for even more freshly-grown (and freshly-made) goodies to take home or enjoy on-site.
