Vegetable Garden Planner Newsletter and Planting Guide

Top o’ the morning to you, gardeners! We’re happy to bring you the first Garden Planner newsletter in April. If you’re new to the Garden Planner, note that these newsletters include your customized planting reminders based on your garden plans and ZIP code (see below), as well as timely gardening tips.

To kick things off, we’d like to share a new feature article that includes six ways to get low-cost (or no-cost) garden beds going. How to Build Cheap Garden Beds also explains why a lot of the discussion in the gardening world about the benefits of raised beds is hype.

Some gardeners struggle year after year with particular pest pressures. To help you find natural solutions to ward off pests and keep your plants healthy, we’ve started a new Insect and Pest Series. The first ones we’d like to share with you are on Controlling Aphids Organically and Control Tips for Asparagus Beetles.

Have you seen the recent videos in the Garden Planner Tutorial Series we’ve been sending your way? If you missed them, check out this YouTube Page to learn more about some of the cool features of the Garden Planner, including those that help you with crop rotation, space-efficient growing, seed starting and more.

If you have questions or comments about the Garden Planner, please reply to this email or get in touch with us via our Contact Form.

Happy growing!
