Gardening Planner

Stay on Track with Your Gardening

Use a Gardening Planner

Every garden is different, which is why you need to observe and keep notes about what happens in your backyard garden from year to year.

Don’t rely on your memory to keep track of everything.

Keeping a gardening planner will increase your gardening success and help you proactively address gardening tasks.


A gardening planner can help you plan and design your garden layout as well as creating a log of successes and failures from year to year.

Taking the extra time and effort to plan out your garden and maintain records through the year should never be underestimated. Your planning will improve from year to year until you are able to track patterns in your microclimate and provide personalized care for your plants.

Hi, I’m Bonnie

My goal is to help you build the confidence you need to take that first step towards producing your own food, whether that means starting a garden or buying a goat. Whatever it is, I want to help you turn your homesteading dreams into reality.

I believe that homesteading is a lifestyle, not a destination. It’s a journey that you take one step at a time, and there is no “right” way to do it. Just start where you are, with what you have, and go from there.

In a world where technology and convenience rule, more and more people are looking to the past for solutions to the problems we face in the present.

Living not so modern means incorporating traditional methods such as family farming, gardening, cooking from scratch, and preserving your own food into your lifestyle. Not only will this provide more security for your family, but it will also teach them valuable skills that can be passed down for generations.
