1. Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a binding agreement between you (“you”, “your”) and Johnny Autoseed LLC (“Johnny Autoseed”, “we”, “us”, or “our”).
By accessing, browsing, or otherwise using johnnyautoseed.com (the “Site”), or by interacting with any service, content, downloadable resource, form, booking widget, newsletter, or consulting offering provided by us through the Site (collectively, the “Services”), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference.
If you do not agree to any portion of these Terms, you must immediately cease using the Site and the Services.
2. Eligibility
The Site is intended for users who are at least 18 years of age. By using the Site, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms in the jurisdiction in which you reside.
The Site is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. See our Privacy Policy for details.
3. Description of Services
Johnny Autoseed publishes research, written analysis, vendor comparisons, budget references, and educational content about automated, semi-autonomous, and community-supported approaches to local food production. The Site is currently in an early-stage operating phase. Services available through the Site may include, without limitation:
- Public web pages, written content, and embedded media;
- A newsletter (delivered via a third-party platform);
- Downloadable resources (PDFs, templates, reference materials);
- Inquiry and contact submission forms;
- Consulting offerings as described below.
We reserve the right to add, modify, suspend, or discontinue any Service at any time without notice.
4. Consulting Services
Consulting offerings are not currently available for booking. All consulting tiers visible on the Site, including any “Free Intro Call” and “Follow-Up Booking” offerings, are marked as “Coming Soon” and cannot be reserved or purchased through the Site at this time.
When consulting offerings are activated, additional terms specific to those engagements (scope, deliverables, payment terms, cancellation, intellectual property of deliverables, confidentiality, and refund policy) will be presented at the point of booking. Booking a consulting session will constitute your acceptance of those additional terms.
Any informational content on the Site about consulting offerings is provided for planning and transparency purposes only and does not constitute an offer to provide services until a session is formally booked and confirmed in writing.
Consulting content, conversations, and any deliverables are provided for general informational, educational, and planning purposes only. They are not, and must not be relied on as, licensed professional advice - including engineering, electrical, structural, plumbing, agricultural, horticultural, environmental, safety, regulatory, legal, tax, financial, investment, insurance, or medical advice - and do not create any professional-client, fiduciary, or advisory relationship. You remain solely responsible for independently verifying all information and for retaining appropriately licensed and qualified professionals before any purchase, build, electrical, water, structural, financial, or operational decision. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Johnny Autoseed LLC disclaims liability for decisions made or actions taken based on consulting content.
5. Accounts
The Site does not currently require user accounts to access its primary content. If we introduce user accounts in the future (for booking, dashboards, or otherwise), additional terms governing those accounts will be presented and will form part of these Terms upon your acceptance.
6. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the Site for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable local, state, federal, or international law;

robots.txt; - Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble any portion of the Site or attempt to derive source code;
