Roosevelt Growhouse is now in its seventh year as a productive, creative space for the downtown Phoenix community. I chatted with Growhouse manager Kenny Barrett about how he and fellow artist, Kelly Placke, first started Growhouse with the intent of taking an underutilized property and creating a productive space for the community as well as a creative space for artists, given its location in the heart of Roosevelt Row Arts District. These days, the Growhouse garden is teeming with hundreds of volunteers with volunteer garden days every Sunday from ten till noon.
Roosevelt Growhouse is located at 6th St. and Garfield.
