My name is Jennifer, and I am a content creator, artist, and visionary on a divine path, inspired by the Holy Spirit to bring the Mustered Seed Project to life. I speak openly about spiritual warfare, the goodness of organic things, and the importance of community. Living in northwestern Indiana, I’ve seen how our community struggles during the long, cold winters. With farmland now converted to solar crops, fresh produce is scarce—even in grocery stores—and children have few safe places to play when the ground is frozen. I believe that something as simple as grounding with the earth can make a world of difference, especially for neurodivergent children and those who need a safe, welcoming space year-round.

The Mustered Seed Project is my dream for a three-phase, enclosed community garden and collaboration center. The heart of the facility will be the PlaYce2B—a dirt-bottom play area on the ground floor, designed especially for neurodivergent children and kids with autism to ground with the earth and play in real dirt all year long. This area will be heated with an outdoor wood furnace, creating a warm, safe, and natural environment even in winter. Above the PlaYce2B, the community garden will thrive, with plants and greenery creating an indoor rainforest feel—while the dirt area below stays dry and inviting. The structure will be built from sturdy logs, inspired by a Django Tower or tall, soundproof, and secure design, making it safe and resistant to vandalism.

Around the perimeter, the Chasing Tails dog run will offer a unique, enclosed merry-go-round experience for dogs. Each dog will have its own plexiglass cubicle, allowing them to run in circles, see other dogs, and enjoy exercise without risk of harm. There will also be benches for people to sit and watch, making it a joyful space for both pets and their humans.

The bottom level would be open 24/7, providing a safe spot for anyone in need, whether it’s for a visit, shelter, or just a place to be. I want this to be a prototype that could inspire similar centers in townships everywhere, fostering connection, learning, and growth for people who might otherwise fall through the cracks. I believe that with faith and community support, this project can become a reality and serve as a model for others.

To get started, I’m raising funds to cover the initial costs of building support and creating a strong foundation for the project. The funds will help me sell original art prints, stickers, and paraphernalia to raise additional funds and awareness. I’ll use the money for subscriptions, storage, computer upgrades, printing flyers, business cards, and letterheads, and to create the brand and voice of the project. This will help me rally local and online support, collaborate with potential partners, and prepare to launch the first prototype in my county. I’m not seeking government funding because I want to keep this space open and accessible to all, without red tape. Your support will help me take the first proactive steps toward making the Mustered Seed Project a reality. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us closer to building a place where our community can come together, support one another, and grow—no matter the season. Thank you for believing in this dream and helping to make it possible.
