GrowGood is an international open-source initiative building digital public infrastructure for land stewards, regenerative agriculture, and local food economies. With a transparent ‘web of life’ approach to farming, communities can track if current practices are improving or degrading ecosystem they depend on. Built on open standards like Valueflows and JSON-LD, GrowGood makes digital ecological and economic data meaningful, actionable and transferable, with holistic accounting of living and nonliving resources, plus other socio-ecological externalities that market valuations ignore. It offers verifiable traceability through an immutable stock-flow consistent audit trail, crucial for proving sustainability claims. It is Interoperability by default as it links to other JSON-LD schemas by design. Plus, ecologicial agents can have ‘rights of nature’ programmed into the software. GrowGood helps communities coordinate trusted ecological knowledge without relying on proprietary data silos.
