Field notes
The homepage describes a weekly hand of question cards, with prompts sent to a family member through the app or read aloud by the Grove Line over a phone call. Its demo grove includes a sample labeled “The motorcycle,” attributed to Grandpa Ray and listed at 2:14. The site says grove growth comes only from recorded stories, not purchases.
