When you adopt a DUG garden or food forest, you\u2019re investing in a precious community resource by ensuring one (or more) of our gardens has the necessary physical and human resources to thrive.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

A list of adoptable gardens\/food forests for you to choose from will be identified by DUG\u2019s garden team based on gardens of highest need near your company\u2019s HQ, outlets, or employees\u2019 homes (you let us know!).<\/p>\n

Adoptions are a three-year minimum commitment to ensure consistency of resources from season to season. Yearly adoption fees go directly towards what DUG staff determines to be immediate garden needs, with any surplus funding applied to DUG\u2019s Baseline Infrastructure Initiative (BII), which further ensures equity across the entire DUG network.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”60px” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#f0f0f0″ scene_position=”center” top_padding=”5%” constrain_group_1=”yes” bottom_padding=”5%” top_padding_tablet=”10%” constrain_group_3=”yes” bottom_padding_tablet=”10%” top_padding_phone=”15%” constrain_group_5=”yes” bottom_padding_phone=”15%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/5″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”1999″ image_size=”regular” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”10px” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default”][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”3\/5″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][toggles style=”minimal” accordion=”true” accordion_starting_functionality=”closed”][toggle color=”Extra-Color-1″ heading_tag=”h4″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”What are the benefits?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n
