The Green Bottle Sliding Scale
🌱 Community Rate — Reduced Rate for Limited Access
Consider this if you:
Have limited expendable income
Frequently worry about meeting basic needs like food, rent, or healthcare
Have little or no savings
Are living with chronic illness or disability that impacts your earning capacity
Are a student, single caregiver, or supporting multiple dependents
Choosing this rate helps keep services accessible for yourself and others. You are welcome and invited to select this without explanation.
🌾 Supporter Rate — True Cost of the Service
Consider this if you:
Have steady income that meets your needs
Can pay bills reliably and have modest savings
Enjoy some expendable income (for eating out, small luxuries, etc.)
Are not burdened by significant debt or financial hardship
Selecting this rate sustains the true cost of my offerings and allows the work to be viable. Most people may find themselves here.
🌳 Sustainer Rate — Contributing to Collective Care
Consider this if you:
Have access to financial abundance or generational wealth
Own property or assets
Have robust savings or investment income
Can easily meet all your needs and regularly spend on non-essentials
Wish to support others who need the Community Rate
Paying at this level helps fund sliding scale access and ensures my offerings can continue long-term. You help make this circle of care possible.
