Welcome to HUG!

Hilltop Urban Gardens (HUG) is a community-led Afro-Indigenous racial, environmental, reproductive, and queer justice organization based in Tacoma, WA. We are revolutionary activists; intentionally reclaiming intergenerational gathering spaces and traditional wellness practices anchored in agriculture, natural medicine, cultural celebration, intersectionality, and artistic expression. HUG is guided by visionary Black leaders with deep compassion for the community.

​

HUG envisions a world where ALL Black folks and systemically disadvantaged individuals thrive, free from oppression. Rooted in food sovereignty, land justice, and cultural pride, we build collectively guided wellness systems centering Youth, LGBTQ, BIPOC, and Immigrant communities. Using unconventional grassroots methods, we champion radical self-love, sustainable practices, and communal efforts that honor African and Indigenous traditions, creating spaces for healing, joy, and liberty. Co-conspirators are welcomed in this Black Liberation movement for justice and freedom for all.
