Patches of Earth

Patches of Earth sells pasture-raised food by subscription. Their customers did not want another login to manage a delivery, so we built the whole thing as a text conversation — text the farm, skip the week, done — running against their existing store rather than replacing it.

• Two-way SMS over Twilio: check a subscription, skip an upcoming order, confirm the change, all in plain text
• Integration with their existing GrazeCart store, with a hard test-account guard so development could never touch a real customer’s orders
• Stateless Node and TypeScript service on serverless functions, with the message-parsing rules covered by tests
• Marketing support around the launch, and technical material for grant applications
