Pumpkin Patch Gardening in June

Thank you to Kaela, Andrea, Matthew, Izador, Marcus, & Alexander for tending the Pumpkin Patch Garden last Sunday morning.  It was warm, there was a dead snake, and lots of weeds but you ladies and guys made it fun!

How many TEENs does it take to fill a trash bag?

DBG Community Garden

TEENs will have their own plot inside the DBG Community Garden for volunteers and staff here at the Garden.  We will be planning this new development this weekend and I look forward to visiting local community gardens in the area for inspiration!  Watch for posted work days as we break ground this summer!

Service Learning Project - Papago Park

Thank you - Jeff, Tom, Pat, Miette, Marcus, Raven, Alexander & Intern Nina!

You did a great job and made our local park shine!

Flashlight Tour Trainings are Underway!

With 29 TEENs already trained, it's time to join the fun!

Flashlight Tours are a great opportunity for TEENs to volunteer over the summer and enjoy the desert with Garden guests during this family program.
