I love this so much, thank you for sharing.

However, TopSoil is based on the principle that gardening is a radical act. It’s an ongoing joke that none of us really know what we’re doing, but we give it a go anyway. We operate on the basis of sharing both our skills and our knowledge, learning from each other, and taking care of each other.

By learning about nature through the lens of community knowledge and queer ecology helps us better understand our place within it. Like humans, the natural world does not fit into neat binaries or social norms. Queerness is part of the natural world.

Wow, thank you for sharing this article it was very moving. I agree that in this atomized and lonely world that an act of community does become radical and I always remind myself and others that we are doing a form of raical activism when we keep up our communities and relationships, organize gardening clubs or books, movies whatever.
