Inspiration

Our inspiration for this project was addressing issues with food scarcity and food deserts. We began our weekend with calling farmers from the area about the issues they face and the response heard the most was addressing a food scarcity and trouble reaching a rise in demands in some projects.

What it does

When inputing your address, It will give you 3 crops/plants that will grow the best in your area

How we built it

We built it using a web application that would work with multiple API's like gemini that lets us grab the information that best fits the needs of the user

Challenges we ran into

Some challenges that we ran into when trying to implement a ML model that would be able to identify the plant someone may be growing in their backyard and the condition it may be in.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of the work we were able to do together and incorporating multiple API's into one applications

What we learned

We learned about frameworks like flask with python and how it works with javascript. We also learned a lot about API calls and how we can get the information that we need.

What's next for MyGreenThumb

To incorporate the ML model that we tried building and allow the user to keep a personal log of the pictures they have taken and the plants they have grown.
