Shopper questions
What is Growers Ground?
Growers Ground is a map-first garden-sharing app that connects people who want to grow with people who have unused garden space, plus community gardens and other places to grow. The app is not yet in app stores, but the website's garden maps and guides are free, and you can join the waitlist for the app.
How can I share my unused garden space?
Decide whether your space is suitable, check any lease, HOA or insurance limits, and choose what you want in return. Put the agreement in writing before anyone plants. You can find a gardener by asking neighbors, local gardening clubs, or community boards.
Will my exact address be shown on the map?
No. In the app, locations are approximate until you choose to connect with someone.
What do gardeners give hosts in return?
That is up to the two of you. Common arrangements include a harvest share, barter or seasonal rent, agreed before anyone gardens. Growers Ground does not handle payments for plots.
How is a yard share different from a community garden?
A community garden plot is usually run by a city, nonprofit or garden association, often with a waitlist and fixed rules. A yard share is a private agreement between a host and a gardener, so the two of you set the terms.
