About
This is like a wikipedia for native plants and permaculture - but with smart software that will help design a garden for you based on your needs and desired plants, adding companion plants. It will also provide information about plants' superpowers.
Impact
It will help gardeners select what to plant beyond what they already know, and use plants that naturally fix nitrogen, repel pests, and provide other helpful functions. It will also bring back native plants to gardens.
Progress
I have made a prototype website with a demo database of plants, which also includes a smart garden planner
Team
I have over a decade and a half of experience in web development and programming, as well as an ongoing study of regenerative agriculture. Previous projects include Verdance, an app to facilitate sharing and receiving food from home gardens

Season totals as displayed on the platform's public accounting — not a statement of amounts paid out. V2 = Venus sales + Venus extras. The original page also broke each season down by fund drive and showed an Available (unclaimed) balance; that level of detail survives only on the preserved snapshots.
