Check out the drafted design for the CARES.green app (click here), which shows how the CARES app is designed to not only support care farms by making them easy to find, learn about, and contact, but also allows them to raise funding by providing a space for them to promote their products, events, experts, work opportunities, and more to the public.
CARES.green is more than just a care-farm-finding app. It's a space to connect, a place where anyone can go to find opportunities to live in harmony with oneself, one's community, and the ecology. It's a place to find greate products and events that support communities practicing this harmony and healing individuals locally as well as globally. It's a place where mental health experts can easily find work opportunities to teach and collaborate. It's a digital world built for anyone searching for a balanced life that incorporates personal wellness, a beautiful community, and hope for a sustainable future.

It was an honor to share about CARES and our traction so far as well as our aspirations at the brilliant Ethical Tickets Launch Event in the Assembly Rooms, Glastonbury, UK.
Ambitious as we are, we are still just a tiny startup and charity, and it was motivational to share our philosophy of interrelated health and plans for the future with an inspiring and similarly motivated audience.
The collaborative spirit and traction that resulted from these efforts was just the sendoff both ET and CARES needed to keep chipping at fundraising and our ducks in a row to creating a potentially world-changing digital platform and NGO.
Cheers and here's to reaching for future that heals all wounds and promotes connection to self, others, and nature as a way of sustaining and accruing wealth and abundance. 🌱💚🌎🌞
