In partnership with Denver’s Office of Climate Action, Sustainability & Resiliency, Denver Urban Gardens offers free classes in composting several times a month throughout spring, summer, and fall.
All public compost classes are hosted at the compost demonstration site at the DUG Gove Compost Demonstration Site located at 1325 Colorado Blvd. Please utilize parking on Harrison and 13th streets. The garden is west of Colorado Blvd.
Each compost class is a two-hour, hands-on workshop in the basics of backyard composting. Worm Workshops are special classes that cover vermicomposting techniques.
PLEASE NOTE:
-
All participants must register. We are not accepting walk-in attendees.
-
If you cannot make the class, please email us at dirt@dug.org so that we can open your spot to another person.
