Why we picked this
A midday bilingual garden class for 1st graders at Johnson Elementary — DUG-led, volunteer-supported, and genuinely fun for the kids. Two time slots available.
This Denver Urban Gardens garden class brings 1st graders at Johnson Elementary through hands-on activities covering seeds, soil, and seasonal growing. The program is bilingual, and volunteers help a DUG educator run the activity rotation stations — guiding small groups through each station during the class period.
No teaching background needed. DUG staff manage the lesson; volunteers facilitate the hands-on portions. Two time slots available on May 27 (11:45 AM and early afternoon). Each shift is roughly an hour.
Johnson Elementary is in Harvey Park South, on Denver’s southwest side. Spanish-speaking volunteers are especially helpful here given the school’s community, but not required.
