Cloud City Farm & Community Garden
Growing community through food at 10,152 feet above sea level.
Through Cloud City Farm, C4 supports a more sustainable and resilient local food system in which all Lake County households have access to food that is healthy for them and for the planet.
But we’re about more than just food.
Cloud City Farm is a community hub where you can connect, compost, learn, gather, or even just relax and take a deep breath in our warm and welcoming greenhouses.

Where to Find Us
📍Unless otherwise noted, all Cloud City Farm events take place at 440 McWethy Drive in Leadville.
We’re located across from the Community Field and below the Mineral Belt Trail and Lake County High School. Look for the gravel driveway off McWethy and head towards the greenhouses!
At Cloud City Farm, we don’t just grow food - we share food with our community in many ways, including our weekly farm markets. These markets feature fresh, locally grown food at donation-based “pay what you can” prices to ensure that tasty, healthy food is accessible to everyone.

Community Garden
Cloud City Community Garden was created with the intention to build community in Lake County through the growing of food. All Lake County community members and individuals of all ages, backgrounds, etc. are encouraged to come together in the spirit of community to enjoy the community garden, whether that entails gardening, resting on a shaded bench or meeting with friends and neighbors in the garden.
The community garden plot lottery is now closed and all 30 plots have been assigned. We had a huge volume of applications and are sorry if we weren’t able to offer you a space this year, but we appreciate your interest and look forward to supporting you in other ways!
If you have any questions please email sarah@c4leadville.org.
