who drops into the garden center once a year to pick out this season's petunias. This is for the obsessives. The ones who plan their gardens in the dark of winter with a stack of notes from the gardens of years past. This is for the addicted gardeners who spend more time thinking about what seeds to plant that spring than what dinner to plan on Valentine's Day. This is for the observant few who would gasp if a glass of iced tea were set on their hand-written notes for planting dates, bed rotations, and plants that were eaten by that damn rabbit. Friends, I'm just like you and I know how much work you put into keeping all those details in order.

and I'm an obsessive gardener. I've had all of these problems too so I built Dirtbook. It's a workbook for all of these details that you can access right from your phone. With Dirtbook you can log pictures of the seed packs, note both the bed and specific location you planted in, take pictures of that bed, keep your notes about experiments you ran, and the yield for each plant. Not to mention the dates you started seed, planted, and harvested... and a whole lot more. Dirtbook isn't a subscription. In fact it isn't even a software or an app. It's a template I built and refined after many years of frustration. It uses the free version of off-the-shelf software (Airtable) and it lets you further customize things as your needs advance. For $19.99, I'll send you a copy and then that's it.
