Hello AGA Community! First off, I want to reassure you that AeroGarden Addicts is here to stay! However, I’ve been finding it harder to spend much time on the forum lately due to health, family, and life keeping me busy. I do check in when I can, but I apologize for not being as active as I'd like to be. With that said, if anyone is interested in taking over the forum and helping to keep it running smoothly, please reach out to me. I'm open to selling the domain and transferring ownership. If no one steps forward, don't worry—the forum isn’t going anywhere. I just won’t be able to participate as much as I should, but you can always reach me via email if needed. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Happy Gardening!

I can't, because of my current caregiving load and other things.  |

...I'm open to selling the domain and transferring ownership...
This makes me wonder if this could become a community thing where a number of people could financially support the forum. |

I could potentially see contributing a bit annually if it would help with the domain name/hosting costs. It is not about the expense and contributing would be up to you all. I will give you the breakdown of what is spend. Domain (aerogardenaddicts) is paid up thru 9/9/2026 - Yearly Cost is about $18 and may change Proboards is the backend forum service: Monthly to keep it Ad Free is approx $22 Custom Domain with them is approx $60 a year Total about $350 a year to keep it going without Ads, having AGA domain used instead of a proboard link I don't mind being transparent. At this moment I do not think there are more charges but I have to look further if there are any |

I can contribute financially to the forum, but my time is in short supply at the moment.  |
