﻿🌱﻿ AgroforestDAO is an agricultural network harnessing the power of blockchain to build a cosmolocal community agriculture adapted to the 21st century. <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmYCJHdDjjzepZLw6h5cEbaBWmfUdgiP2zMcrhoo4Ei2yB">Redemption Hill, 15 months-old AgroforestDAO is a pioneering initiative that integrates blockchain technology with agroforestry to create a decentralized and globalized model of agricultural production and community governance. By leveraging Web3 solutions, AgroforestDAO fosters engagement through gamified governance, education, and reputation-building, ultimately contributing to the expansion of regenerative finance (ReFi) in the agricultural sector. The project seeks to establish intergenerational and perennial production systems that transcend traditional agricultural models by using community-based practices. The DAO's goal is to build a global community of stakeholders who support and participate in sustainable agricultural initiatives. By combining blockchain’s transparency, immutability and open protocols with agroecological knowledge, AgroforestDAO aims to create an ecosystem where stakeholders can play different roles, such as apprentice, guide, mentor, professional, investor, institutions, land owners and volunteers, engaging in positive sum actions.<img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmUmtxnoYBZ8kXCk3X8o8C7XJuFTPNobfiLriSbpbQvv9t"> <h2>Building a Rooted Network Society</h2>AgroforestDAO network is made of local agroecossystems managed by stewards connected to the network and exchanging many different capitals involved in the reproduction of food forest culture. We leverage the social validation that happens during tourism, volunteering, and regional events to attest stewardship while exchanging the culture. This contribution recognition feeds the community channels of Retroactive Funding, Commitment Pools, QF Rounds, Joint Ventures and other forms of resource allocation.&nbsp; Early last year we received minigrants from Arbitrum, from Gitcoin donors, web2 donors and these funds are now being streamed to a newborn network of stewards building different forms of value to the DAO.&nbsp; <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmcP9UJGAAt9hTWqyf4SGi4kYqQBTYk45LKg9W2vdFrWZT">in September we announced our first online learning journey and planted the rice, peanuts, corn and other summer crops in our pilot agroecosystem, Redemption Hill.&nbsp; The “Jornada AgroforestDAO” happened in October and thanks to a professional SM campaign focused on Instagram and Linkedin we got 100 applications that resulted in 80 contacts in our Telegram and 20 built their agroforestry project profiles in our Charmverse. They experienced being in a bounty quest using the Impact Miner from AtlantisDAO and were able to apply and donate to many projects in GG22.&nbsp; <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmUCpQwg2dvsKYeKWwMN1Dbk2avPiBuWESp4ZF18itqut2"> Last December we ran a QF round for the apprentices holding POAPs from our 6-week AgroforestDAO Journey. In the round there were 13 local projects and one collective safe account for the apprentices to start practicing governance. <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmRP4UoZKrfUF9FvY2p4oypaQFHqUUxYKqugGS926KQCzg"> In January there’s a lot going on also, things are full speed in web3… We are using the Sarafu Network on Celo, to create Commitment Pools of vouchers for different products and services. We are starting to certify and qualify volunteering in our network by empowering hosts to manage keys in a Unlock-Protocol account. Some of our nodes are members of web2 volunteering networks such as Backpackers and Workaway and the demand for support from hosts and volunteers emerged. So the AgroforestDAO Volunteer Network is being built with a combination of Unlock-Protocol for certification and e-mail onboarding and Sarafu Network commitment pools for liquidity access. Huge thank you to all the Open Source builders out there.&nbsp; <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmbT8j7Q4ZusHVmWMYrHzD4V91oQLy7CxD5re5SHJ3DoYd"> February will see the launch of our second learning journey, where we hope to at least 2x our network of rooted members. And, there are many more branches to that tree among others the collaborations for the first Brazilian Pop-up City to happen from April 22nd to May 22nd in Florianópolis. We were invited with the condition of working to build open agroecological onchain primitives. Join us at <a href="Ipe.city" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ipe.city</a>&nbsp;There’s more, there are requests for mentorship support, for a online marketplace, regional meet-ups and what not. We understand the need of combining the digital, social, ecological tools we have for the purpose of increasing the quality, quantity and diversity of Life after our local interventions, and that’s our North Star. Please support us so we can continue bootstraping many rooted community ventures ﻿🌴﻿﻿🌳﻿
