Join DUG’s education team to support our Growing an Oyster Mushroom Bed workshop. The workshop begins promptly at 10:00am, but please arrive an hour early at 9:00am to assist with set up.
Your responsibilities may include:
- Set up/clean up
- Checking in attendees & welcoming guests
- Kitchen: restocking snacks, coffee & tea stations
- Tech support & facilitator assistance (eg. handing out materials)
- Outdoor classroom management, carrying supplies & tools
- Photography
- Check out/assisting with exit surveys
You will also have the opportunity to sit in during the workshop and learn the content while offering your support. Once the workshop is concluded at 12:00pm, you will support with clean up and any "check out" processes. Clean up/check out should take ~45 minutes, and your volunteer shift will end by 12:45pm.
Please note the workshop will be held at the Posner Center for International Development and outdoors at the Horse Barn Community Garden. Be prepared to work outdoors, wear closed toe shoes and appropriate clothing. We'll be working with straw/hay, compost and mushroom inoculant. Some light lifting and physical work may be involved.
Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Denver Urban Gardens!
