DUG relies on volunteers of all ages and skill levels to change and enhance urban neighborhoods. DUG gardens are constructed entirely with volunteer labor. Volunteer groups, corporations, schools and individuals are encouraged to join DUG in making a difference. 

Your volunteer efforts help strengthen urban neighborhoods with the creation of community-based gardens and parks that impact thousands of individuals. DUG crews are out and about throughout the year.

Consider the many ways you can lend a hand:

DUG Volunteer Days  Get involved in a day project where your help truly makes a difference. Help build a garden. Typical volunteer tasks involve building arbors, installing benches, painting signs and murals, laying stone pathways, and much more. 

Light Construction  On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays throughout the year,  DUG staff and volunteers build and upgrade garden sites throughout the metro area. Typical tasks include building pathways, grading, pruning, and soil preparation. Groups and individuals are encouraged to volunteer.

Clean Hands Crew  Don't want to get dirty? DUG needs you! Volunteers are needed to help with special DUG events, community fairs and various exhibits and demonstrations. Volunteers are also needed to help out in the DUG office.
