As a beacon of environmental progress in the heart of Wichita, Kansas, RISE Farms is a 15,000-square-foot specialty crop farm and a 204-panel solar farm blooming on the top floor of Fidelity Bank’s RISE Car Park.
Welcome to RISE Farms. In partnership with Fidelity Bank, we’ve transformed a carpark rooftop into thriving, year-round food and solar power production farms. Our goal is to grow a variety of produce in a no-waste manner to supply area restaurants and Wichitans with fresh, local ingredients.
In addition to providing local produce, the green-roof farm lessens the urban heat island effect, curbs building energy costs, and prevents excess stormwater run-off. With the solar farm providing power to the parking structure and ground-level retail locations, RISE is truly a beacon of environmental progress
