A community garden project for queers & friends 

Our world, bodies, and societies are divided into boxes and categories. This is also mirrored and reflected in the plants we share the planet with. With the non-binary garden project, we want to create a garden that is not limited to being one thing—something fixed that is not allowed to change. Our garden can be both culture and nature, both cultivated and wild, both useful and beautiful.

The non-binary garden is about exploring the plants and their properties where they grow and exist. It is about discovering the usefulness of ornamental plants and the beauty of useful plants.

The non-binary garden is also about safety and comfort—security in terms of a bit of food security, and comfort in terms of connection to the soil and an understanding of one’s place.
And scents and colors!

It is about breaking down rigid and binary structures that separate beauty from utility and divide functions into two separate parts.
