Hi friends!
Thanks for all of your support and enthusiasm - it really is incredible to watch our new community grow and flourish. It might even be as much fun as watching AVA Byte grow your food for you. ;)
HD Camera
We saw that a whole bunch of you have already added on the HD Camera feature to your AVA Byte - if you haven't done so yet and would like to, make sure to get your order in soon while the 50% off pricing is still available.
ADD HD CAMERA FOR $25

What’s in a Plant Pod?
In other news, we just released a new video all about the AVA Byte plant pods! Stock up on a few extra 5-Packs while they're still discounted. Personally, we've found that 5 of the AVA Pod 5-Packs are enough to grow plants, herbs and flowers for the whole year.
GRAB A FEW POD PACKS
1 Minute to Spare
We're eager to improve the campaign, answer your questions and make sharing AVA with your friends and family easier. If you have a minute, please fill out this 4-question survey. It will help immensely, and we'd really love to hear from you!
Let's grow,
Val & the AVA Team
P.S. We found a project that we LOVE - and thought you might too if you're interested in a more-connected home:

Hi everyone!
We've gotten some great feedback from folks excited to get our HD Camera. The AVA Byte that you pre-ordered is already intelligent, with its 4 built-in sensors - Relative Humidity, Temperature, Ambient Light & Water Level - as well as programmatic systems to intelligently grow any type of plant.
We talked with our suppliers and are ecstatic to release a limited 300-unit run of HD camera ad-ons at-cost: just $25.
Adding the HD Camera takes your AVA Byte to the next level. By adding Plant Vision you'll unlock growth tracking and advanced insights over time.
Head over to the campaign page now to ensure you're one of the first to record amazing HD time-lapse plant videos on your AVA Byte:
Pre-Order HD Camera Add-On
We're still putting together the digital cookbook stretch goal - we'd love to hit $75k raised in the next few days so we can release it to you for FREE! Share widely and let us know if you have any questions or concerns ([email protected]).
Let's grow,
