PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU MUST PAY FOR THE CLASS AT THE TIME THAT YOU

these classes as a community service to promote urban agriculture,
homesteading, sustainability and self-reliance.
HOW
TO REGISTER

Urban Homesteading. If your check is returned to us by your bank for
any reason, we will charge you an additional $50 due to our work to
straighten it out.

Form.
Come to Denver Urban Homesteading during market day, any Saturday between
9-2 to pay.
C. PAY WITH A CREDIT or DEBIT CARD USING PAYPAL
1. Fill out
ONLINE
REGISTRATION FORM, calculate total payment and submit.
2. Login to PayPal and
send money to Denver Urban Homesteading.
Confirmation
We will confirm your registration by email once we have received both your
registration form and payment. If you have not heard from us within 5 days
of mailing your check or paying with Paypal, please contact us. We send you
another email one week before the class to remind you it is happening and
give you pertinent details of time, location etc. If you do not receive an
email please contact us. Occasionally our emails go to the wrong address
or land in the junk mail box and we won't know unless you get in touch.
Generally a class has space until we put up the "class full" indication.
However sometimes a class will fill up in the time between your mailing
off a check and us receiving it. If this is the case, we will call you to
notify you immediately and either return your money or apply it to another
class of your choice.
REGISTRATION MISCELLANEOUS
• Sign-ups are on a first-come, first-served basis.
• Prepayment of class fees in full is required at the time you sign-up to
reserve your space.
• All
materials fees are due IN CASH and are collected at the beginning of the
class by the teacher.
• The following contact information is required for all students: Name,
Contact Phone(s) and E-mail Address.
• By signing up, you are saying that you have read this entire page,
including our refund policy directly below.
CANCELLATION POLICY
•
No Refunds: All payments are non-refundable (i.e., we do not offer
refunds). If you cannot attend a class that you have committed to, please
refer to the options below.
•
Rescheduling Option: If you sign up for a class and need to change the
date for any reason, there is a $20 change fee for the work that goes into
moving the information, reconfirming, and attempting to fill your space.
This option is good as long as you call us (303 572-3122) with at
least 7 DAYS NOTICE, but please try to give us as much
advance notice as possible.
•
Half Credit Option: If you need to cancel (for any reason) and you
call us with at least 48 hours notice (but less
than 7 days before the class), you are eligible for a HALF CREDIT of your
class fee to use for any future class. Note, this is not a refund, but a
credit.
•
No Credits/Refunds for No Shows: If you sign up for a class & do not
call or show up FOR ANY REASON (you got the date/time wrong, car broke
down, you are sick, had to work late, etc.) the entire class fee is
NON-REFUNDABLE, nontransferable, and no future credit will be given - no
exceptions. There is limited space available in each class and many of the
classes involve a minimum materials cost and considerable preparation time
for the instructors. When a seat is empty that could have been filled, we
feel this is only fair.
•
Class Cancellations (if we cancel): If enrollment is below a certain
minimum of students, we or the teacher has the right to cancel a class
prior to the class. If a class is cancelled, you will be contacted using
the phone number and/or e-mail that you gave when signing up, and will
receive a full refund or a credit for any future class (your choice).
WHAT TO BRING
Bring anything required in the class description.
CLASS LOCATION
Unless otherwise specified, all classes are held at
Denver
Urban Homesteading
at 200 Santa Fe Drive, Denver, CO 80223 at the corner of 2nd Avenue and
Santa Fe Drive. Please research & print out directions
before the day of the class, as you may not be able to reach
someone by phone on the day of class. There is plenty of street
parking. As a common sense reminder, please don't leave any
valuables in view in your car.
CLASS TIMES
Start times on classes are absolute. Please plan on arriving 10
minutes early so that we can all start together. Class end times are
approximate and can run a half hour longer or shorter. Please plan
accordingly.
WHAT NOT TO BRING TO CLASS
As much as we love pets, some people are allergic to them, so we
have to ask that you leave them at home. Also, please do not show up for
the class with any additional people (that includes husbands, wives,
babies or small children). Unexpected guests often cause
distractions that are not appreciated by paying customers.
MINIMUM AGE & KIDS CLASSES
Although our classes are designed for adults, we would be happy if a child
attends with an adult. If you feel your child is mature enough to attend a
class with or without you, please discuss it with us before signing
up (as some classes are better for young people than others). We will
occasionally offer classes specifically for those under 18. We do
offer private parties if you have a group of young people (or adults) who
want to do a class for a special occasion. If interested, contact us with
as much advance notice as possible.
TEACHER INFORMATION
On each class description page, the teacher's name is listed under the
title of each class. You can find each instructor's bio on the same page
as their class description as well as on our Teacher Page.
If you have teaching experience and an agricultural/food/sustainability
class idea you think would work at Denver Urban Homesteading, please
contact us at: james@denverurbanhomesteading.com with a class proposal,
your resume & references.
