Making Queer liberation and food security possible through
Queer people, growing Queer things, in Queer places
We are a nonprofit community organization dedicated to uniting and empowering Queer communities to achieve self-sustainability by growing their own food. At a time when Queer people face heightened disparities in food insecurity, and the global food system continues to harm our planet, our mission is to make it as accessible as possible for Queer individuals to cultivate food in any space.
