Touch Grass is a community-led organisation reconnecting queer people of colour with the outdoors.
They create intentional, welcoming spaces that centre joy, healing, and belonging in nature, from hiking trips and camping weekends to wellness retreats and local gatherings.
For too long, outdoor spaces have felt unsafe or inaccessible for marginalised communities. Cost, lack of representation, and systemic barriers have kept many queer people of colour from experiencing the mental, physical, and social benefits of time in nature.
Touch Grass exists to change that. We are breaking down barriers, building confidence, and making the outdoors a place where everyone feels at home.
