Grow A Garden Kit distribution at Smiley Branch Library
Help DUG distribute free Grow A Garden seed-starting kits to Denver neighbors at Smiley Branch Library. A short, easy shift with direct community impact.
Why we picked this
Hand out free garden kits to Denver neighbors who want to grow their own food — a low-lift, high-contact shift that puts something tangible in people's hands.
Denver Urban Gardens distributes free Grow A Garden kits to Denver community members at library branches and recreation centers across the city — and volunteers are what make those handoffs happen. At Smiley Branch Library, you’ll help DUG staff distribute kits to residents who want to start growing food at home.
It’s a short, approachable shift: friendly, public-facing, and easy to do alongside a companion. No gardening knowledge required — you’re handing out kits and answering basic questions from neighbors. All ages are welcome.
