πŸ€ Who are we ?

Trefle is a charitable non-profit that uses technology to provide the most complete botanical database on earth, for free. We sincerely believe that all botanical knowledge should be a common good, and not reserved for a small elite.

πŸ”§ Our work

We started in 2017, by collecting, parsing and aggregating botanical data from multiple data source. We exchanged a lot with botanical gardens to get a copy of their own database, then started to manually correct our entries. Now, we're allowing anyone to contribute, and reached our 1 million indexed plants milestone !

But there is still a lot of work to do: our database is very incomplete, and new species are discovered each day.

πŸ’– Thank you

We'd be honored to have your help, via code contributions, plants corrections or sponsorships. We strongly believe that we can do this, together, by coordinating our efforts and resources.

@treflehq

It will cover our minimal server costs, in order to keep the service up and running smoothly.
