UrbanGreenQueens is a digital home for anyone ready to grow their own food, nurture houseplants, and reclaim autonomy in a world that profits from our dependence. Here, we reject the idea that gardening is a hobby for the privileged or a skill reserved for “experts.”

~Why We Exist~

- To dismantle the myth that Black and Brown folks don’t belong in gardening spaces.

- To share free, practical tools for growing food and medicine, breaking free from corporate food systems.

- To honor ancestral knowledge (our first green thumbs) while adapting it to urban realities.

- To prove that every person—yes, you—can cultivate abundance, whether on a fire escape, a windowsill, or a postage-stamp backyard.

~What You’ll Find Here~

- No-BS Guides: Seed starting, container gardening, and houseplant care—minus the gatekeeping.

- Community Stories: How gardeners like you are resisting food apartheid and rewilding cities.

- Resource Sharing: Free templates, zone-specific planting calendars, and DIY hacks that don’t require a trust fund.

~This Space Is~

🌱 Pro-Black, Pro-Brown, Pro-Earth— A sanctuary centering marginalized voices in the gardening world.

🌱 For Everyone— Allies are welcome, but colonial mindsets are not.
