Description

This week on We Dig Plants, Alice and Carmen are joined by Megan Uithoven, Community Manager for GrowIt!

GrowIt! is a mobile app that connects gardeners through photos and comments using geo-location technology. GrowIt! is the only app that allows you to rate plant pictures from your area. The goal is to engage the next generation of gardeners (Millennials mostly, ages 20-38). This free mobile app is the first of its kind, creating a social platform for users to promote plants they love and help others steer clear of plants that just don’t perform, and runs entirely on user submissions.
