Your growers

Adding a grower you have just found

Register a nursery that is not in the platform, from the field, and log a visit against it in the same sitting.

Where to find it

Menu My Growers + Add Grower

Before you start

The business name and its state. Everything else can follow later.

Add grower modal in the officer portal
My Growers › Add Grower

Steps

  1. 1 Select My Growers in the menu, then + Add Grower. You can also use Add Grower under Quick Actions on your dashboard.
  2. 2 Type the Business name. This is required.
  3. 3 Add the primary contact's name, email and phone if you have them, and a secondary contact if there is one.
  4. 4 Add the Address, and choose the State. The state is required.
  5. 5 Select any accreditations that apply: NIASA, EcoHort, BioSecure HACCP or In Progress.
  6. 6 Select Add Grower.

What you'll see

A confirmation reads "Grower added." and the business appears in your list with an identifier the platform generates, in the form GN-1021. It is assigned to you automatically, so you can log a visit against it straight away without leaving the flow.

Good to know

You never type the identifier and you cannot assign the business to another officer — new growers you add belong to you. If the form is rejected ("Business name and a valid state are required."), the boxes are cleared, so on a patchy connection it is worth noting the details down before you submit.
