On Friday, July 9th 2021, Denver Urban Gardens partnered with Spark the Change Colorado and Major League Baseball for a day of volunteer service at three different DUG gardens to kick off All-Star Week!
DUG hosted more than 70 volunteers at the Horesbarn Community Garden, Morey Middle School Community Garden, and at Delaney Farm. Working together, the groups completed a variety of projects including building a shade pergola, laying down pathways, planting fruit trees, and weeding beds.
Despite scorching temperatures, the day was fun-filled and highly-productive as volunteers came together in service of community and food access. The partnership with Spark the Change Colorado and MLB was a winning combo, for sure!
