Smart Gardener

While cruising around on Pinterest, I came across this awesome website for planning your garden.  www.smartgardener.com    and the best part is that it is free.

On the website, you can plan the dimensions of your garden using raised bed, in ground planting, or container gardening.  Then based on where you live it gives a long list of fruits and vegetables that will thrive in your area as suggestions for what to plant.  Once you have picked your vegetables, it will assign an area in your garden based on space, and companion gardening.  It's pretty cool!

This is a sample screen shot (I couldn't figure out how to get my own screen shot).

It also has a Journal and Calendar features.  The calender will give you a "To-Do" list based on the vegetables that you chose for your garden, as to when to plant and prune and mulch and harvest and tons of other things. 

I figured I have around 190 square feet of gardening space once I redo the back yard.  
That will be spring's project.
