Planting Good Seeds.org ran out of love
So, for now, we're putting it back in the soil.
Planting Good Seeds began with Nikki and a small group of people in Taganga, Colombia, who shared a dream: to create a Casa de Recursos — a place where discarded and recycled materials could be collected, transformed, and given another life.
Over the past few decades, Taganga has changed enormously. Tourism has brought opportunity, but also pressure on a small town and the land and sea surrounding it.
We wanted to plant something here.
We still do.
Today just isn't the day we're able to give this project the love, time, and resources it deserves. So rather than pretend otherwise, Planting Good Seeds is on hold while we rethink how it can grow sustainably.
Maybe one day, with the right people and enough love, we'll come back and plant some good seeds in this little town.
Until then, the dream is still here.
— Nikki

Live big. Travel the world. Prove there is still buried treasure where others wouldn't dare to look.
Growth Strategy Fellowship
This is a 4-week experience for creative professionals who want to live big, travel the world, and prove there is still buried treasure where others wouldn't dare to look.
Most people think it's impossible to build a recycling and sustainable art studio in the Caribbean — one that puts the local community at the center of it. We're proving that it is. We're a startup building our founding team. This is your opportunity to be part of a team attempting something most people think can't be done.
All of us here are self-funded independents coming together to strengthen our entrepreneurial skills, expand our support networks, and create opportunities for one another. The return isn't just financial. It's the relationships you build. The skills you develop. The doors you open. And the people who remember your name years from now.
This is an opportunity to increase your net worth in community.

This is a highly selective global creative entrepreneurship community designed to help ambitious leaders elevate one another.
The Journey
Raise $49,000–$100,000 in 4 Weeks
We have 4 weeks. Our goal: raise $49,000–$100,000 to build the first recycling and sustainable art studio in the Caribbean. We're launching a Kickstarter that proves there is real value — and real money — in places the world often overlooks. Not by extracting from them. By recognizing it. Building it. Revealing it.
Years of Dividends
You don't just get a resume builder. The 4 weeks you invest here continue paying dividends in credibility, relationships, and experience. Years from now, you'll be able to walk into a room and say: "This small town is what it is because I helped make that happen." You have the power to influence the trajectory of an entire community — with very little money. Opportunities like this don't come around often.
Write Yourself Into the Plan
You'll continue raising capital for projects and programs you care about. If you want to stay, you don't apply for a job. You write yourself into the plan.
A Community That Elevates
This is not just a 4-week program. It is a 4-week initiation. You're stepping into an opportunity to learn how creative entrepreneurs actually build careers — surrounded by people who have traveled the world, built audiences, launched businesses, and found ways to make a living pursuing their wildest dreams. The people you meet here may become future business partners, collaborators, clients, mentors, investors, or lifelong friends.
