Dogpatch Urban Gardens (DUG) is an urban farm located in Des Moines, Iowa. The farm has been in operation since 2017 and specializes in growing annual vegetable crops focusing on salad-oriented products. Sustainable and regenerative agriculture is the foundation of our farm model.
While the farm was founded on growing healthy, fresh produce for our community we have diversified our business to be more than crops. We are proud to offer our valued customers a full range of products and services.
What started as an urban farm has evolved into so much more! We are a community destination to support local food. We make farm-inspired products that are available in grocery stores throughout the state of Iowa. We host farm-to-table dinners and even have an on-site AirBnB!
Jenny started Dogpatch Urban Gardens in the fall of 2015 with the help of her husband, Eric Quiner. The main reasons for starting the farm are to promote health/nutrition, enhance community, environmental conservation as well as instill family values for their sons.
We are blessed to have an amazing crew of individuals that help our farm business in so many ways!
