We're making fresh produce accessible to everyone in our community.

Who we are

MUG is a network of community gardeners and urban farmers committed to growing and maintaining gardens in and around Mobile, Alabama and to increasing access to fresh produce for everyone. We pool our resources, knowledge, and labor to make this vision a reality.

 
 

There are over 20 gardens and farms in MUG's network.

Our Mission

Mobile has one of the highest rates of diabetes in the United States, and over 25% of Mobilians live in a food desert as defined by the USDA without access to fresh fruits or vegetables. MUG combats this hardship by providing tools and support for local gardeners and by making fresh produce available and free for the community at large.
