How can I support Permapeople?
Monetarily
So far, most of our operating costs are out of our own pockets (well, Ben’s actually). We do have one micro-grant under our belt from our Open Data Day 2021 contribution, and while the $300 was great, it only covered a month of operation. So, like many other creators of the day, we’ve created a Libera Pay account in hopes to collect some donations to keep us afloat. Donate what you can. Any bit helps!
Physically
Our platform is built on open-source knowledge. We work from existing databases, and open-sourced information whenever possible. The rest is sourced through research and human contribution (people like you). That said, we can use all the help we can get. If you have a few spare minutes to fill out some attributes on a plant profile, or add a missing plant, or even upload an image or two of your own, this would be a massive contribution to the community.

Socially
Spread the word! Share a post with a group you’re a part of or simply tell a friend about Permapeople. Better yet, add some of your seeds to the open marketplace and get trading!

Actively
Use the platform to help you grow food to feed yourself, your family, and your local community while regenerating the environment. If you’ve made it this far, you’re enough and we’re proud of you. Plant the future, and encourage others to do so as well.
