How rootr works

three steps. no money. just plants.

  1. List what you're growing

    Snap a photo, give it a name, and your plant shows up for neighbors near Jamison Square in seconds. No password — just your email and a one-time code. The more you share, the more you get.

  2. Swipe your neighborhood

    Browse the Discover feed — it's a card stack of plants on your block, sorted by distance. Swipe on what you want. Think of it as the Tanner Springs Park farmers market, open all day, in your pocket.

  3. Chat, meet up, trade

    Message the grower right in the app. Pick a spot — a front porch, the entrance toPowell's, wherever's easy — and make the trade. Bring a tote bag.

Free to use. No app needed to get started.
