Description

Plan, sow and harvest in step with a short northern season

In a cold climate, every week counts. This planner helps you bring order to your growing season: what to sow, when to sow it and where everything should grow.

Instead of fixed months that rarely fit, every date is counted from your own last frost date. That way, the sowing calendar works for your garden, wherever it is, whether that’s in Sweden, Canada, the northern US or the UK.

What’s inside

  • How to find your last frost date, with sources for the US, Canada, the UK and northern Europe, plus old Nordic signs in nature
  • A sowing calendar for 21 common crops, from celery and tomatoes to peas and carrots
  • Tips for hardening off, succession sowing, extending the season and fall sowing
  • A simple four-year crop rotation, with advice on perennials and companion planting
  • 8 printable templates: year at a glance, bed plan, four-year rotation, sowing log, monthly plan, harvest log, seed inventory and season review
  • 15 A4 pages/US letters

How it works
This is a digital product, so nothing will be shipped to you. After purchase, you can download the PDF straight away. Print the templates as many times as you need and keep them in a binder with your seed packets.

The planner pairs perfectly with the workbook Design Your Own Place, but works just as well on its own, whether you have a few raised beds or a whole vegetable garden.
