GrowCo Subs Lease Greenhouses and Extraction Facility to Johnny Cannaseed

DENVER, Colorado –August 5, 2016– Two Rivers Water & Farming Company (“Two Rivers” OTCQB: TURV) subsidiary GrowCo, Inc. (“GrowCo”) announced today that GrowCo Partners 1, LLC (“GCP 1”) and GrowCo Partners 2, LLC (GCP 2”) have leased two greenhouses and an extraction facility to Johnny Cannaseed, LLC (“Johnny Cannaseed”) a Colorado limited liability company.  The GCP 1 facility was completed late 2015 and leased to a tenant who is to be evicted on September 6, 2016 for failure to pay rent.  GCP 2 is currently being constructed and expected to be finished by December 31, 2016.

After the suspension of the previous tenant’s grow license on April 13, 2016, Johnny Cannaseed was formed on April 19, 2016 by John McKowen, the former CEO of Two Rivers and GrowCo.  On May 25, 2016 John McKowen resigned as CEO and board member of Two Rivers, GrowCo and all affiliates to avoid any conflicts of interest with Johnny Cannaseed.

About Two Rivers
