For Stewards
Let the land speak. Let others join your care.
Why Join Found Ground?
If you care for land, you know the work is mostly invisible; trash gets picked up, trails get cleared, fires prevented, species protected. Few visitors see that work, and even fewer know how to support it.
Field Tokens change that. When a visitor taps one, they’re not just saying “I was here.” They’re entering a relationship, with the land and with you.
What You’ll Receive
- Installed Steward Field Tokens for trailheads or landmarks
- A live steward profile on the Found Ground map
- Real-time logs of reflective or anonymous visits
- A direct support button (PayPal, Stripe, Venmo, or contact form)
- Optional analytics: tap counts, peak days, and more
Low-tech, low-maintenance tools that create high-trust visibility.
Who Can Apply?
- Local parks & preserves
- Land trusts & conservation nonprofits
- Private landowners offering public access
- Trail associations & friends groups
- Cultural, historic, or spiritual landscapes
If the land matters and you care for it, you’re eligible.
Cost & Access
No cost to apply. During the initial rollout, Acre & Oak provides Steward Tokens to approved sites free of charge.
Future phases may offer install kits at cost or via micro-grants and community sponsorships.
