Adopt A DUG Garden or Food Forest

What is garden adoption?

When you adopt a DUG garden or food forest, you’re investing in a precious community resource by ensuring one (or more) of our gardens has the necessary physical and human resources to thrive.

What are the benefits?

• A meaningful way to give back through active philanthropy that goes beyond just writing a check.
• “Adopted by” sign with your company’s logo on the garden/forest fence on or near the entrance, providing high-value exposure to a highly engaged community in close proximity to your business.
• Garden opportunities for team members to invest in their health and work shoulder to shoulder and in partnership with their neighbors.
• Access to a private gardening workshop for your team (with adoption of five or more gardens). 

What are the Responsibilities?

• Ongoing stewardship of the garden in partnership with the Garden Leadership to ensure the garden community is maintained and thriving.
• Promotion of your partnership with DUG at your business to provide exposure and awareness for DUG beyond the garden itself–we’ve got you covered with signage, stickers, and brochures!
