Why one bundle
One year, four kits, one small vegetable garden
A small vegetable garden planner only works if the pieces agree. All four kits count from the same frost date, use the same crop data and print at the same scale.
A garden calendar planner with weekly lists
A twelve-month season calendar in The Winter Plan and week-numbered lists in The Seed-Starting Countdown.
One year round garden planner, winter plan to fall count-back
The Winter Plan opens the year, and The Season Record closes it with a fall count-back and notes for next winter.
A vegetable garden year planner in 134 pages
Thirty-two, thirty-five, thirty-six and thirty-one pages, each printable in US Letter and A4.
A vegetable garden planner calendar from your frost date
Every kit counts weeks from your last frost, so the calendar fits Zone 5 and Zone 9 gardens equally well.
An edible garden planner for backyard vegetables
41 crops with spacing, depth, days to harvest and frost class, so the plan comes from data rather than guesswork.
A garden grid planner at true scale
Bed grids at 1 inch = 1 foot and plot grids at 1 inch = 2 feet or ¼ inch = 1 foot, depending on the kit. Print at 100 %.
A garden plot planner for a 28 by 32 foot yard
The Winter Plan’s whole-plot graph shows your layout at ¼ inch = 1 foot; The Season Record adds an as-planted map for the real result.

FAQ
Questions gardeners ask
What is the best layout for a small vegetable garden?
One you drew to scale. The Winter Plan in the bundle has bed grids at 1 inch = 1 foot for 4×8, 4×4, 3×6, 2×8 and custom beds, and the Companion Planting Plan adds drawn beds with plant counts.
How far apart should I space vegetables in a raised garden?
Each crop has its own spacing. The master chart in The Winter Plan and The Season Record lists in-row, row and bed spacing and plants per square foot for 41 crops.
What is a good layout for a vegetable garden?
Group crops by their frost class and by what they need, then draw them on a grid. You get grids at true scale, a rotation planner and succession pages in the bundle.
How to plan an edible garden?
Choose the crops, date them from your last frost, draw the beds and keep a record. That is the order of the four kits: plan, count back for seeds, pair the crops, record.
How can I create a year-round garden?
Plan the whole year on paper: the Winter Plan has a fall countdown and a season calendar, and The Season Record has a fall and overwinter chart for 28 crops. Any garden still stops at your climate’s frost, so the plan is dated by it.
