Every fourth Sunday, we hit the garden to tackle planned tasks that benefit the garden as a whole. Sometimes we have a specific project, and sometimes we pull weeds and turn the compost piles. We work at those planned goals for two hours and then often break to take care of our own plots and/or socialize.

Many hands make light work, so all are welcome to join us. Bring your family and friends!

The food forest is in need of routine site upkeep, weeding, and watering.  We will mulch in the spring (May) and fall (Oct/Nov).

Show up whenever you can between 5-7pm on the first Wednesday of every month.

Meet at the covered pavilion picnic tables at 5pm, then we will move to the food forest down the sidewalk to the east of the pavilion.

Bring work gloves, drinking water, and sunscreen. Equipment will be provided.

Dress in layers for sun protection and comfort. Please wear close toed shoes.

In case of inclement weather, the event will be rescheduled.

Welcome to the Hinkley High School Community Garden's 2026 season!

We are located just off Chambers Rd., between 6th Ave and Colfax. Free parking is available along the street, but not in front of the apartment building next to the garden. RTD bus route 153 also stops next to the garden.

Each workday will have its own unique focus, but common workday tasks will involve:

We will often have multiple garden stewards at each workday, and usually have smaller groups working on different goals throughout the workday.

We like to offer cool drinks, snacks, sunscreen, and can loan out garden gloves, but we encourage volunteers to bring their favorite gloves, hats, and whatever they need to be comfortable while working. Our garden has some limited shaded seating under the pergola, but is otherwise very sunny!

Finally, our garden does not have a bathroom on site. Please plan accordingly, and we understand if you may need to step out from time to time during workdays because of this.

Please reach out to us at HinkleyHighSchoolCommunityGarden@dug.org to contact the garden stewards, and we hope to see you soon!
