Governed as a federated DAO of Local Bloom nodes, we\u2019ve built communities around the world since 2008, through regional food security, Indigenous solidarity, and alternative economies. https://bloomnetwork.earth.\n\nWe hope that members of ReFi DAO, Greenpill Network, and Celo Public goods can also access our expertise and experience, and collaborate where mutually beneficial.\n\n# **Bringing IRL Impactooors Onchain** \n\n\ud83d\udc4b\ud83c\udffd We are 33 Local Bloom hubs across 11 countries, and 30,000+ people on the ground. We\u2019ve jumpstarted over 7,000 local urban and agroecology farms worldwide, 400+ community enterprises, and built permanent foundations for regenerative cultures. Our members have deep knowledge of how to achieve climate adaptation and watershed restoration, with decades of experience building local economies.\n\n[![5.jpg](https://i.postimg.cc/xjw3tw9R/5.jpg)](https://postimg.cc/V5FtNHrr)\n*pictured: Broadfield Enterprises, Uganda, food security and African economic sovereignty*\n\n\n# **Local Action Rewards** \n\n\ud83c\udfa1 Thanks to your support in GG20, we successfully launched Bloom's Local Action Rewards to incentivize people to document their community impact and share knowledge.

It's a new way to distribute philanthropic funds and cooperative profits for grassroots mobilization.\n\nLocal Bloom hubs and their members earn FLO (Flowers), our reputation token, by documenting their regenerative actions. The public can easily read about the actions, allowing peers to learn and improve their own impact. Our grants are dispersed based on FLO earned in that period. Bloom's social network, combining features of LinkedIn, Facebook, and Discord, supports effective mobilization around what is working well for climate adaptation and repair.\n\nNext, we are exploring ways to add community currency properties to FLO to support local business discovery, further utilizing [Inverter Network's](https://github.com/InverterNetwork) smart contracts to kickstart flywheels for bioregional economies.\n\n[![community-Currency-nodescrip.png](https://i.postimg.cc/cJY52P2q/community-Currency-nodescrip.png)](https://postimg.cc/1gmHN7yM)\n\nIt's an open discussion how we collaborate with other cosmo-local networks to maximize supporting and scaling what matters.
