The core concept: Campfire
A grounded ecosystem where founders gather around real challenges, not just wins.
WoodAcres.ai feels like a forest clearing: warm, intentional, and quietly powerful. Move through thematic groves, share your latest struggle, and let the community guide you without the noise.
