The fee keeps spam and fake listings out. That way people can trust that a real garden stands behind a listing.

  • Switch it back on after it ends: €2.90 for another 60 days.

Questions

What you'll want to know first.

Why does it cost anything?

The fee keeps spam and fake listings out. In return we check every listing before it goes live and keep it visible for 60 days. Sign up for a monthly or yearly plan within twelve months and you get the fee you paid back as a credit code.

Do I need an account?

Yes, but only at the end. You fill in the listing without an account, your draft stays saved on this device. Then you create your account in one step: with Facebook or email.

How long is the listing visible?

60 days from publication, longer with some promo codes. During that time people find it in the search by place and radius, on its own page and on your club's page.

Can I extend it?

Yes. Once it has ended, you switch the listing back on for another 60 days for €2.90.

Who sees my contact details?

Only signed-in users. You decide whether phone, email or a messenger are included. Inquiries can also run entirely through the messages in Gartenkern, so your number isn't out on the web.

Does Gartenkern decide who gets the garden?

No. For an allotment in a club, the club still decides, otherwise you do. The garden exchange only puts you in touch with interested people.
