“Dancing Plants in Pants” test garden at All Power Labs, made in 2019 over a couple of workshops- first was led by Michael Collins, with Olivia and me/Leela in attendance. Second was led by me, with some friends from All Power Labs.

The dry, sun-beaten location and difficulty to irrigate the irregular structures devastated this garden. Great experiment, though!

Visitors are welcome to take 10 packs of seeds per day, as long as you tell library staff at the desk (they don’t check library cards).

Aug-Dec: Turkey Lake Persimmons

fruit tree, persimmon, Unexpected Fruit Tree, Wild Fruit Tree

Craig Hepworth: "The ‘Turkey Lake’ tree in Gainesville was planted in 2002, and it has grown to a large size. Every autumn it produces abundant crops of fruit over a long period – most years you should find some ripe fruits if you visit any time from late August through the middle of December. (The very earliest fruits to drop sometimes don’t taste quite as rich as the ones which ripen from October onward). If you’re in the North Florida area, this is a good opportunity to experience what a really good form of American persimmon tastes like. I consider fruits of this species to be one of autumn’s finest treats."

Craig selected this variety of wild American persimmon, due to its size & flavor, and propagated it here.

Visiting the ‘Turkey Lake’ tree in Gainesville:

The tree is located in Dreamer’s Garden, a city of Gainesville community garden located at the intersection of NW 10th Ave and NW 4th St. There’s easy parking across the street in the Earth Pets plaza (you can stop in at the store to pick up some eco-friendly treats for your furry companions while visiting the persimmon tree.)

GoFundMe

fundraiser, GoFundMe, Intro

Check out the fundraiser!

Hi, my name is Leela and I am a mom, a food forester, and the designer of the map notes platform, LeelaMaps.

A functional demo of LeelaMaps is available at leelamaps-dot-com, but it desperately needs a rebuild as a solid web app. The funds will cover the fees for web hosting and redeveloping LeelaMaps in React using AI (Vercel).

Why use AI? Because to have humans build this platform could cost thousands, even hundreds of thousands of dollars. AI cuts down fees and development time substantially.

LeelaMaps provides an easy way to share what we know & want in the world for ourselves and other people to find on a map, publicly or privately.

Plants, emergency resources, dating profiles, home businesses, you name it!

Given the state of the world right now, it seems important to help people coordinate resources together, directly on a map.

Ways you can support this project:

* donate here

* buy my fashion, educational materials, soil products

* join my online gardening workshops

* buy tickets to my garden party

Other ways to support:

* map on LeelaMaps

* share LeelaMaps and/or this GoFundMe

Who I am:

I am a naturist frugivore who is seeking to live a primitive lifestyle. My vision for LeelaMaps originated when I was living as a nomadic socialite between communal homes in the San Francisco Bay Area, witnessing the various sharing & gift economies that supported communal lifestyles. Over time, my dream evolved into fostering global food forests— but the core flexible platform remained the same.

How I know I can do it:

In the current version of LeelaMaps, I have already implemented AI to develop stable features. However, the Wordpress foundation isn't structured for sufficient performance for scaling, so it's time to rebuild.

Fortunately, I have familiarity with React & Node.js, which is the preferred platform for the AI that I am starting work with (Vercel).

Upcoming features:

* importing maps

* custom saved maps

* notifications

* custom marker pins

* custom templates

* friends & groups

* store objects

* live GPS

With more support:

* live video

* decentralized map hosting

* IoT + drone maps

This financial goal is fairly humble considering the end product, but in my circumstances (single mom of toddler, living in a forest) it is challenging for me to acquire it on my own. However, if you'd rather get something for your money then you can buy my fashion or educational gamesheets.

Stretch goals include:

* $3k: cross-platform build

* $7k: demo map w/ BYTE food trailer: fully mapped sources & itinerary

* $10k: public food forest campaign

* $150k: EcoCamp headquarters & eventspace
