The cause and the problem
We think under this economy, many people are fighting inflation and struggling with expensive groceries. With the success of other sharing platforms (e.g. EVO car sharing), we want to create a sharing platform that could minimize the money burden for fellow citizens. Moreover, not only does it help build an interconnected community, but also promotes sustainability by the efficient usage of idle and excessive resources.
The AIM
We aim to encourage interaction within the community and promote sustainability by reducing the need for commercial production. By connecting local gardeners, the app can contribute to a more eco-friendly and self-sufficient community.
primary USERS
User who owns a garden and grows items, but has never used any app for trading and sharing. Usually shared items with their neighbours or close friends. Having an intention to get involved in a community.
