These terms govern your use of theplantersguild.com (the "Guild" or "site") and any associated services run by Petruscio Farms (the "Publisher"). By visiting the site or signing up for the Founding Member list, you agree to these terms.
The Founding Member reservation
The Guild is currently in pre-launch. The Founding Member sign-up reserves your spot in the first 1,000 supporters. Right now, no charge is being collected — your reservation is free. When we launch paid memberships (target: late 2026), Founding Members will be offered a permanent rate that won't be available to later subscribers.
You are not committing to a purchase by reserving a spot. When the paid tier launches, you'll be invited to subscribe at the Founding Member rate, and you can decline at that time.
Content and use
The Guild publishes editorial content about plants, gardening, substrate science, weather, and related topics. This content is for general educational and personal use. You're welcome to:
- Quote short passages with attribution to The Planters' Guild and a link back
- Share Guild articles via social media or email
- Reference Guild articles in your own writing or teaching
You are not licensed to:
- Republish entire articles on another site
- Use Guild content in commercial products or services
- Use Guild content to train AI models
For other uses, including educator licensing, contact christopher@theplantersguild.com.
Not professional advice
Guild content is general information, not professional advice. Plants, soil, weather, and growing conditions vary widely. We make our best effort to be accurate, but we can't guarantee that what works in our garden will work in yours, or that our recommendations are right for your specific situation. For decisions with safety or financial consequences — toxicity, allergic reactions, large investments in soil or equipment — consult a qualified professional.
Intellectual property
All content on the Guild — articles, photography, illustrations, brand identity, and the editorial framework itself — is owned by Petruscio Farms unless explicitly marked otherwise. Reuse beyond the personal and quotation rights described above requires written permission.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Petruscio Farms is not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Guild or reliance on its content. We're a small publisher doing our best work; you're an adult making your own decisions.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA. Any dispute will be resolved in Santa Clara County courts.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms occasionally. The effective date at the top of this page will reflect the latest version. Material changes will be communicated to subscribers by email.
