People make the connection

A useful exchange can be a beginning.

A question about a tomato plant. A shared harvest. A familiar face at collection. Local food creates everyday reasons for people to connect and learn from each other.

01

Make your contribution useful

Keep an offer accurate, answer a question clearly or let someone know when plans change. These small actions help others take part with a better understanding of what to expect.

02

Respect people and places

Agree arrangements before travelling, protect private information and confirm only handovers that actually happen. Public Plants observations also need care: access, identification and permission must be checked independently.

03

Introduce someone to the idea

Share the public demo or directory with a person who may find it useful. Explain what they will see and let them choose their own next step. Proposed invitation rewards remain separate from simply sharing a link.

04

Help shape the next improvement

Specific feedback helps the project learn. Describe the task you were trying to complete and the point that felt unclear. Useful experiences and honest questions can guide the work ahead.
