What to plant, how much, and exactly when.

A garden only feeds you if it's timed right. Set your frost dates, choose your crops and how many of each, and get real yield estimates plus a planting calendar built for your climate — when to start seeds, when to plant out, when to harvest. Subscribers can export it to their calendar for reminders all season.

Your climate

Everything is timed off your frost dates. Enter your ZIP or pick your USDA zone to fill in typical dates, then fine-tune to your own if you know them.
Enter your ZIP and we’ll fill in your hardiness zone and average frost dates from NOAA climate normals — or set them by hand. Dates are averages; watch your local forecast.

Your garden

Add each crop and how many plants you'll grow. Crops group by season: cool-season crops shrug off light frost and grow best in the cooler ends of spring and fall; warm-season crops need warm soil and die at the first frost, so they must be planted after the last spring frost and mature before the first fall frost. Plant-out dates default to your climate — edit one to log an actual date or a second, later succession planting; a harvest that would fall after your first frost is flagged in red. Yields and spacing are typical estimates — real results vary with soil, water and care.

Your planting calendar

Your season, task by task — when to start seeds indoors, plant out, and begin harvesting. Export to your calendar app for reminders.

A planned garden feeds you. A hopeful one doesn't.

Fold your harvest into your food plan, and keep the whole thing on schedule.
