Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

“The consolidated financial statement effects of a tax position taken or expected to be taken are recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not, based on technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. Interest and penalties, if any, are included in expenses in the consolidated statements of activities. As of December 31, 2019, Denver Urban Gardens had no uncertain tax positions that qualify for recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. Denver Urban Gardens is generally no longer subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2014.”

IRS990/Desc0DUG supports 188 community gardens with 17,500 gardeners while impacting over 40,000 individuals across 6 counties in Metro Denver. Our program ensures that the gardens are well built and responsive to their specific environment, whether located at schools, parks, neighborhoods, senior communities or low-income housing. We maintain the physical structure as well as the human infrastructure ensuring well-functioning communities through training, fiscal sponsorship and being the interface between gardeners and land owners. In 2019, we built 3 new gardens: Jefferson Green Community Garden, Slater Elementary Community Garden and Denver Language School at Gilpin Garden.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The consolidated financial statement effects of a tax position taken or expected to be taken are recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not, based on technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. Interest and penalties, if any, are included in expenses in the consolidated statements of activities. As of December 31, 2019, Denver Urban Gardens had no uncertain tax positions that qualify for recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. Denver Urban Gardens is generally no longer subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2014.
