PPlanteka
Planteka is a Barcelona-based digital platform and community for plant lovers, offering botanical workshops (terrariums, kokedama, floral art, ceramics), one-on-one gardening courses, home plant installation and maintenance, plant-sitting, corporate team-building experiences and a 24/7 online "Plant Doctor" video-consultation service. Legally PLANTEKA COMMUNITY S.L., it started as a marketplace/community for swapping plants and plant knowledge and connects users with independent plant experts and small local nurseries. It is a very small (~4-person) pre-seed company reported to have raised roughly $239K, and although it is headquartered in Barcelona it runs experiences in Madrid and Valencia.
