Now with weather, recipes & neighbors

Keep track of your garden. Become a better gardener.

Garden Journal is where home growers log what they planted, what came in, and what the weather did to it — then read it back next spring and plant smarter. Phone-first, built for muddy thumbs, free to start.

No credit card. Your first season takes about a minute to set up.

What's inside

Everything a season asks of you, in one place.

No more notes-app chaos, no more "what did I plant in this bed last year?" Garden Journal holds the whole picture for you.

Grow Years, gardens & zones

Group your season the way you actually think about it — by year, by garden, by bed or row or pot.

Plantings & harvests, fast

Log a planting or weigh-in from your phone in under fifteen seconds. Photos optional, but encouraged.

A real journal, not a form

Write what's on your mind — what bloomed, what failed, what the dog dug up. With prompts when you're stuck.

Weather that knows your garden

Hyperlocal forecasts, frost dates, growing-degree-days, and an alert when the night is about to turn.

Plant Cards

Build a personal library of every variety you've grown — yields, dates, notes, photos — and tag posts to it.

From garden to kitchen

Save recipes, link them to harvests, and remember what you actually cooked with that giant zucchini.

Neighbors & a feed worth opening

Follow gardeners near you. See what's coming in, what's struggling, what's trending across the season.

Share the surplus

Offer extra seeds, starts, or jam to people nearby. The friendly side of having too many tomatoes.

Look back, plant smarter

At year's end, your dashboard tells the story — what worked, what didn't, what to repeat.

The arc of a season

Plant it. Pick it. Remember it.

  1. I. Plant

    A bed of garlic, tucked in for winter.

    North Strip · October 12

    60 cloves — Music & German Red. Mulched heavy with straw before the first hard frost.

  2. II. Pick

    3.4 lb of Cherokee Purple, picked at dusk.

    South Bed · Late August

    First real haul of the year. Skin a little delicate from the rain — straight to the kitchen.

  3. III. Remember

    Twelve jars of pesto, lined up on the counter.

    2025 Season · From the basil

    Enough to remember August in February. Recipe saved, tagged to the plant card.
