Go old school -- use a pencil.
If you ask any longtime farmer for their single best tip, they will likely tell you to write down the basics. Short, simple notes are fine, but write down the basics.
Basics like the weather -- when it rained and how much; first and last frosts; any unusual temperatures or weather.
Basics like what you planted and when, and how it all fared.
Basics like what you planted where -- sketch out a plan.
They will tell you to do this basic task for several years straight, and that's how you'll really learn some things. This is how you build on what you learn with every growing season and then take it forward. This is how you build your own backyard almanac, which is the best almanac you can have.
Our Perpetual Gardening Record Book was designed exactly for this purpose. Planned as a perpetual daily calendar, there is plenty of room to record the basics, by date, year after year.
We regularly hear from customers in every zone about the many ways they use their Perpetual Gardening Record Book, including but not limited to: gardening, berry picking, mushroom hunting, beekeeping, chicken/egg production, bird watching, and yes, even birthdays and dinner parties (for all you folks who like to host farm-to-table dinners, the details of that would be incredibly beneficial next year!).
Made in Alabama using recycled materials, the 80 pages of brown craft paper include lined Calendar Pages, Growing Charts (inspired from Thomas Jefferson's garden record book - talk about old school!), Sketch Pages, and a Resource Page to keep track of your own favorite seed sources, websites, phone numbers, etc. -- all in one handy place -- for several years.
With beautiful color photographs and Grandmother's inspiring gardening quotes throughout, ours is a calendar you will want to use for several years. Just as much, you will want to hold it in your hands, enjoy the feel of it, and put pencil to paper -- old school.
