Logo Design Brief
We're creating a new kind of true community supported agriculture. It's called Cotyledon Farm.
(A "cotyledon" is the first leaf developed by the embryo of a seed plant. The symbolism has to do with giving back, and nurturing sustainable growth in a natural way.)
For the logo, we're looking for an abstract representation of the attached image.
Ideally, it will be abstract enough that you might not recognize it as plant/seedling unless you knew what you were looking at.
Target Market(s)
anyone who might be interested in fresh vegetables and farming, but doesn't necessarily have the means to farm - passionate about sustainability and organic vegetables and fruits - sees value in seeking solutions that involve sharing

Requirements
Must have
- Logo should work both as a standalone graphic element and also with the words "cotyledon.farm" incorporated into it (that's the name and also the web address).
- Must work in black/white as well as in color.
Nice to have
- Don't necessarily want to go the "green" route for color palette - most farms do that, and we'd be interested in seeing some more adventurous options.
Should not have
- anything too common. If we wanted a logo that looks like clipart, we wouldn't be here on designcrowd. :)
