By early 2020, Lauren Brettschneider and Jake Olson knew they had to sell Rebel Farm, their hydroponic farm in southwest Denver, in order to keep the business alive.
“It got bigger than us, and we knew it,” Brettschneider said.
Shortly thereafter, the pandemic set in, and “we really just didn’t financially have the means to continue on or make it better,” she said. One pending deal fell through.
By the end of the year, however, greener pastures had arrived. One Dec. 23, the pair sold the business and its property at 5445 W. Evans Ave. for $1.25 million, according to public records.
