Enter your zip code. We look up your average last spring frost and first fall frost, then count back for each crop so you know exactly which week to start trays, transplant, and sow, in spring and again for fall.
Two planting seasons, spring and fall. Pick the crops you grow; the calendar works out every spring and fall task for them.
Next 12 months. Dates are targets, not deadlines; a week either side is fine. New to start trays, transplanting, or succession sowing? See the glossary.
Every Sunday, just the tasks for your yard that week. Nothing to do, no email. You'll also get book news and new guides; unsubscribe any time.
Frost dates: NOAA 1991–2020 U.S. Climate Normals, nearest station to your zip, 50% probability of 32°F. Half of years frost comes earlier than the fall date shown, so hedge with row cover. Crop timing follows the count-back method in Your Fall Garden Starts in August.
