Support Volunteers

Gig platforms are labor markets. FLhour is a certificate marketplace. Pollinators aren't hiring anyone; they're buying verified proof that a real community improvement happened. Cultivators aren't taking jobs; they're selling the assets Pollinators want to own. The labor is how certificates get minted, not the product itself.

A FLhour Certificate is a digital record that represents the societal benefits of 1 hour of human labor. You earn FLhour Certificates completely independent of the actual work performed. This means you can simultaneously improve your community and earn an income stream by selling your certificates on the open market.

No. Cultivators are independent workers who set their own rates for the societal benefits they produce. FLhour doesn't assign work or control how it's performed. There is no employer-employee relationship on this platform.

Any number of Pollinators can contribute any amount toward a Garden's target — fill-the-hat style. Funds are held in escrow until work is validated. Each Pollinator receives a certificate proportional to their share of funding.

It depends on how you use FLhour. If you're a Pollinator, you don't need the app. You can browse and fund Gardens from any web browser. If you're a Cultivator, the app is essential. It's how you record your work, including logging start and stop times, capturing before and after photos, and confirming your location. That documentation is what triggers certificate minting when your Garden is validated.

FLhour Certificates reside in the FLhour Registry. This is where they are minted and transferred between Cultivators, Pollinators, and other traders. They never leave the registry so there is no way to lose them.

When a price is agreed to, FLhour has already collected the funds from the buyer. Your account will be credited when you mint your certificate. You can request a check or bank transfer from your FLhour account at FLhour.com

Email us at info@flhour.com with the details of the site you have in mind: where it is, what condition it's in, and any preferences you have for how the work should be done. We'll take it from there and help get your Garden set up and listed for funding.

If you want to see your neighborhood improve and get credit for making it happen, you're a Pollinator. If you want to earn money doing real, visible community work, you're a Cultivator. If you're a local business looking to build a documented record of community investment, FLhour gives you verified proof that your support produced something real. There's a role on this platform for anyone who believes their block, their city, and their community are worth investing in.
