Campus-only marketplace · Built for students

The marketplace that lives on your campus.

Grove is where verified students buy, sell, rent, and barter with classmates, not strangers. Every listing comes from someone at your school, and no one else can see in.

Good things grow here.

Student-verified Campus-only Buy · Sell · Rent · Barter Sustainable

How it works

Three steps from stranger-free to sold.

01 · Verify

Log in with your .edu

Your school email is your key. It proves you're a real student and places you inside your campus's Grove, and only yours.

02 · Set up

Make your profile

First thing after logging in, you build a quick profile: name, year, and what you're into. It's how classmates know who they're trading with.

03 · Trade

List, buy, or barter

Snap a photo, set a price, and post. Classmates can request to buy, or offer one of their own items in trade.

Why Grove

Trust you don't have to build. It's already there.

  • Closed by design. You only see listings from students at your own school. Not from other colleges, not from the open internet.
  • Every account is verified. A .edu address is required to get in, so there are no anonymous buyers or fake sellers.
  • Meet across the quad, not across town. Pickups happen on campus with people you could run into in the dining hall.

Your school's marketplace, under your school's name.

Grove is deployed by universities for their own students, not a generic outside app. When your campus opens its Grove, it's part of student life from day one, and it keeps perfectly good stuff out of the move-out dumpster.

🎓 Offered through your university

Four ways to trade

More than buy and sell.

🛍️

Buy

Textbooks, mini-fridges, desk lamps, from classmates who just finished needing them.

🏷️

Sell

Photo required, price up to you. Post in under a minute and let campus come to you.

🔁

Barter

No cash? Offer one of your own items in trade. Grove was built for the swap.

📅

Rent

Need a projector for one weekend? Borrow it from two dorms over instead of buying new.

Any .edu email works: Google, Outlook, whatever your school runs on. Personal accounts are turned away at the door. Your email is only shared with a classmate after you both agree to a trade.

Step 1 of 1 · Your profile

First, tell campus who you are.

Your profile is what classmates see next to your listings and requests. Takes about a minute.
