# Getting Started

New to Touch Grass? Here's the fastest path from zero to your first Grass Score.

## 1. Connect Your Wallet

Head to [proofofgrass.app](https://proofofgrass.app) and connect a Solana wallet. Your wallet is how the platform verifies you, tracks your $TOUCHGRASS holdings for eligibility, and pays out rewards.

## 2. Submit Your First Proof

Go outside, snap a photo, and submit it as your daily proof. Keep in mind the [submission rules](/04-proof-of-grass.md#rules) — no AI images, no indoor shots, no reused photos, one account per person.

Your first submission earns Grass Score and starts your streak.

## 3. Check Your Eligibility

If you want to earn rewards from streak milestones (not just Grass Score), make sure you meet all three [eligibility requirements](/04-proof-of-grass.md#reward-eligibility): 25 minimum followers, $5 USD minimum in $TOUCHGRASS or an active Harvest deposit, and a connected wallet. Rewards aren't paid retroactively, so it's worth squaring this away early rather than after you hit a milestone.

## 4. Explore the Platform

Once you're submitting daily, check out:

* **World Map** to see community activity
* **Quests** and **Challenges** for extra Grass Score
* **Marketplace** to browse themes, Shields, and Sunset Passes
* **Field Guide** to start collecting nature finds

## 5. Consider Planting in Harvest

If you're holding $TOUCHGRASS, [Harvest](/02-harvest.md) lets you plant it during a season's planting window for a shot at seasonal rewards. Check the current season's minimum deposit and dates before you plant.

## 6. Consider the NFT Collections

Grass Touchers and Screen Touchers are both stakable for $TOUCHGRASS, and mint proceeds support youth athletics. See the [NFT Collections](/03-nft-collections.md) page for supply, contract addresses, and marketplace links.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.touchgrass.today/06-getting-started.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
