Welcome to the Growstuff project.
|
|
|
|
Growstuff is an open source/open data project to create a website for
|
|
food gardeners. We crowdsource information on what our members are
|
|
growing and harvesting, aggregate it, and make it available as open data
|
|
via our API.
|
|
|
|
Growstuff was founded in 2012 and has been built by dozens of
|
|
[contributors](CONTRIBUTORS.md). We are an inclusive, welcoming project, and
|
|
encourage participation from people of all backgrounds and skill levels.
