I'm all out of love, I'm so lost without you
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
Performance Artist Fellow
Bring energy, emotion, and human connection into the movement through performance and creative expression.
Welcome, Performer!
This fellowship is designed for emerging performers, entertainers, dancers, musicians, spoken word artists, hosts, content personalities, and socially magnetic creatives interested in growing their confidence, creative presence, and audience connection within an international creative network.
Planting Good Seeds is building a global movement rooted in creativity, entrepreneurship, storytelling, cultural exchange, and community connection. Performance Fellows help bring energy, visibility, emotion, and human connection into the movement through performance, interaction, entertainment, and creative expression.
This is not a traditional performance residency. It is a collaborative creative experience focused on helping performers strengthen their artistic identity, communication skills, confidence, and ability to emotionally engage with people both online and in person.
"Performance is not entertainment — it's revelation."

The Journey
Phase One — Remote Onboarding (1–2 Months)
Community-Backed Support Campaign
During onboarding, fellows begin building stronger entrepreneurial and communication skills through networking, audience-building, storytelling exercises, and collaborative relationship development. Participants are encouraged to raise support for their learning journey while developing confidence in presenting themselves, their creative interests, and their long-term goals.
Phase Two — Performance, Community Engagement & Creative Collaboration
Remote or On the Ground
Once the on-the-ground team arrives in the Caribbean, Performance Fellows continue participating remotely or in person through creative collaboration, digital storytelling, audience engagement, and community-centered performance experiences. Fellows attend the daily 5:00 PM Sharing Circle meetings.
Phase Three — Alumni Network & Lifelong Community
Remote
The fellowship doesn't end after four weeks. Fellows become part of the growing Planting Good Seeds alumni network, gaining access to future collaborations, mentorship, fundraising opportunities, creative projects, and entrepreneurial ventures as they emerge.
