Are you ready to finally plan your garden ahead of time for a successful harvest and enjoyable gardening experience?
This free printable garden planner can help!
This garden planner printable is packed full of pages to help you plan, track, and organize your seasonal, monthly, and weekly garden tasks so you can make this year the year you finally get your seeds planted on time and keep up with your garden chores.
This planner is as functional as it is pretty. I've noted that, all too often, planting planners are either functional (but unattractive and unappealing to use) or frilly without much substance. I hope this planner fills the gap so you can have a garden binder that's a joy to look at and a helpful planning tool and record.
I started gardening when I was four years old with container tomatoes on the back patio. Since then I've almost aways had at least something growing. This planner brings together the aspects of garden planners and journals I've found most useful over the years.

How to print and use garden planner printables

These pages are a joy to print and use. They have carefully designed margins to ensure they are printer friendly. You won't have anything important missing after you print and hole punch for your garden binder!
For best results, I recommend printing on 32 lb paper. This paper is brighter and thicker than "normal" printer paper. This means your pages look inviting and beautiful, plus they hold up better to repeated use. For a side-by-side comparison of several popular papers and cardstocks, be sure to check out this post on the best paper for planner printables.

I recommend printing these letter sized pages at 100% and placing them in a 3 ring binder. Keeping your garden planner each year can help you look back, reflect, and grow an even better garden next year. A clear view binder works perfectly because this set of printables comes with a lovely front cover page. Two cover pages, actually, with different skin tones:
You may also want tab dividers to separate your months and seasons.
Make sure to add a few heavy duty page protectors, too, so you can keep your empty seed packets!
Use and enjoy! This is really the most important step - you need to actually print and use your garden planner if you want your gardening results to get better and better.
Resources for keeping a successful garden
There are so many gardening books and resources available that it can be hard to know where to start. These are a few of my personal favorites because they have lots of useful information for new and experienced gardeners and clear images. I am happy to answer questions about any of the books listed below - they are all in my personal gardening library.
The Year Round Vegetable Gardener
The author, Niki Jabbour, focuses on growing a family-sized garden in raised beds. The Year Round Vegetable Gardener is filled with practical suggestions that look nice and don't cost a fortune to implement. I particularly love the book's modern look and plentiful, bright images.
- Jabbour, Niki (Author)

Square Foot Gardening is a classic! An earlier edition was the first gardening book I ever owned. Square Foot Gardening is an intensive method that shows you how to plant a sizable amount of food in a small area by sectioning it off into one foot squares.

I absolutely LOVE your work! So adorable! I had printed off your garden planner a few years ago & then my husband accidentally printed over the pages and threw it away! I actually cried! I couldn't remember your website & I've been looking ever since. Today I finally found you! YAY! So excited to look at all your products!
