What do you dream of growing in your garden? Take a moment and really think about your dream garden. Make it your own! Planning Your Dream Garden I prefer to keep the pages loose, but I’ve seen some beautiful planners that have been bound at a printers or tied together with garden twine. The heavier paper keeps nice and sturdy throughout the year. I have my garden planner printed on cardstock each year at the office store down the street. When you finish the steps, you’ll have a handy seed shopping list to keep you on track at seed swaps, a clear garden layout map for when you plant your garden, and an easy-to-follow schedule for when each crop needs to be planted. Once you’ve printed your planner, go through it step-by-step, referring to the companion articles for background information. Each section in the planner includes a corresponding companion article with detailed background information to support you through each step.

The steps include everything from choosing the right things to grow, drawing a proper layout, and scheduling out your crops.
