Across these 10 San Diego “Community and Lifestyle” entries, the disclosed funding amounts show a steep divide: AccessParks raised $29M on 2023-12-22, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed rounds (Starlight Cardiovascular at $2M on 2024-05-01 and Nuvve at $5M on 2025-07-11) and leaves most other disclosed rounds well below that level (e.g., $350K on 2025-11-04 for Greenbutts, and $150K on 2024-12-20 for Dreams for Change). There’s also a tight temporal cluster around late 2023 and early 2024, with multiple rounds in December 2023 and May–September 2024.
The geography is consistently San Diego, California across every listed company, while the funding classification is heavily “Series Unknown” (5 of 10) with two entries marked “undisclosed” (ECOR on 2023-11-20 and PsychArmor on 2023-08-17). The timeline runs from the oldest listed round on 2022-03-09 (Once Upon a Farm, Series D, $52M) to the most recent on 2025-11-04 (Greenbutts, $350K).

Are there any meaningful date clusters among the most recent 10 rounds?
Yes. Several rounds cluster around late 2023 and December, including AccessParks ($29M, 2023-12-22), News Revenue Hub ($450K, 2023-12-20), and ECOR (undisclosed, 2023-11-20), followed by additional activity through 2024 (e.g., Starlight Cardiovascular $2M on 2024-05-01 and Dreams for Change $150K on 2024-12-20).
Do the list entries show a consistent stage mix or do classifications split into groups?
“Series Unknown” makes up 5 of the 10 rows (Greenbutts, Nuvve, Dreams for Change, Black Tech Link, Starlight Cardiovascular). The only named stage visible is Series D for Once Upon a Farm on 2022-03-09 ($52M), while ECOR and PsychArmor are the two “undisclosed” rows.
How recent are these rounds, based on the dates shown?
The newest round is Greenbutts on 2025-11-04 ($350K). The coverage runs back to Once Upon a Farm on 2022-03-09 ($52M), with multiple entries in the 2024 calendar year such as Starlight Cardiovascular (2024-05-01, $2M) and Black Tech Link (2024-09-18, $100K).
Are any rounds worth flagging as outliers relative to disclosed amounts?
AccessParks is the clearest outlier on the disclosed side with $29M (2023-12-22), while the smallest disclosed amount in the table is Black Tech Link at $100K (2024-09-18). Two additional outliers are “amounts not disclosed” (ECOR on 2023-11-20 and PsychArmor on 2023-08-17), which can’t be compared on magnitude but do break the disclosed-size pattern.
