Our mission

The 2020th 8th round of the Prototype Fund brought up this group of people, engaged into the creation of a tool for managing and organizing a community garden. We are a group of people already being involved in urban gardening projects and want to use our knowledge about the challenges around maintaining an open community of volunteers and passionate gardeners to create a beautiful place.

Our mission is to make it easier for those groups and cooperatives to organize themselves, connect to other initiatives or maybe start a new project from scratch with an elaborate tool on their side to fulfil the vision.

Pergola

Our main application is called Pergola. A hybrid app, which can be build for various platforms and has a lightweight backend. See our demo and give us some feedback on it! We'd love to hear what you think 🤩

Some of our guidelines

• open source, open data
• data transparency
• self hosting capability + SaaS
• no dependency on commercial tools or services
