NEW! Completely updated as of February 1, 2010! My calendar still contains all the information below plus: More than 4 times the tips, a new Seed Longevity Chart with instructions on how to make sure your seeds are viable each year! I have also included a Frost Zone Conversion Chart so this calendar will work in YOUR frost zone, and a list of my favorite books for gardening and preserving food! I even include a copy of my planting chart for record keeping!
The information in this perpetual calendar has come from several sources. The main source has been our experience, and our growing records, from the last 10 years here on the farm. Another valuable source has been lore from local "old-timers". These two sources have taught us to see the signs, cycles and patterns provided by God in nature and to plant accordingly. If we begin to recognize these signs on our own lands and in our own gardens, we can then plan our activities to work in harmony with them. We find that then, we are rewarded with abundant harvests, and less problems throughout the gardening season.
You won't find empty squares to record appointments in this calendar! Instead you will find tips on seeding, planting, transplanting and harvesting. How to stop spending hours weeding your garden! My list of favorite heirloom veggies, herbs and flowers! Herbs: how to use them in the Kitchen, Bath and Medicine Cabinet! Our favorite family recipes for garden goodies! A list of our seed and garden supply resources!
Don't throw this calendar away at the end of the year! I hope that you will use this calendar for many years to record your own garden experiences. I believe you will derive great pleasure and healthy benefits from growing some of your own food organically just as we have! So begin now! It doesn't matter if you grow herbs on your windowsill, garden in a few containers on the patio or if you have a huge backyard garden. There are suggestions, hints, and recipes throughout this calendar that apply to you! Use this calendar to create your own special garden and fill it with your favorite foods, herbs and flowers...then...ENJOY!!!
This calendar is laser-printed on 80 lb. cardstock to ensure you many years of use!
