Earth Month is a time to reconnect with the planet, take action in our communities, and support organizations growing a more sustainable future. This April, Denver Urban Gardens (DUG) is partnering with local businesses across the Denver metro area to bring you a series of giveback events that make it easy (and fun) to support community gardens.
From seed swaps to seasonal sips, here’s how you can get involved all month long:
🌼 Kickoff Event: Seed Swap at Woods Boss Brewing
Saturday, April 11 | 1–4 PM | Event Page Link
Start your growing season with inspiration and connection at our Seed Swap event! Join the DUG team at Woods Boss Brewing to:

Saturday, April 18 | 12-3pm | Littleton Location | Event Page Link
Every year, Breckenridge Brewery partners with a local organization to champion Earth Month. This year, they’re partnering with DUG. $1 from every pint/crowler sold of their Strawberry Basil Saison will go directly to DUG – it’ll be available while supplies last. Cheers to that!
Breckenridge Brewing isn’t just supporting DUG—they’re investing in sustainability across their operations:
- Eco-Friendly Brewing: A 289-kW solar array at their Littleton facility generates over 20% of their electricity
- Waste Reduction: 99% waste diversion, with spent grain and yeast repurposed as feed for local farmers
- Certified Impact: Silver Certification from the Colorado Green Business Network for achievements in water efficiency and emissions reduction
