Happy March! I hope you are well. We had a wonderful week of warm weather last week, and now we are snowed in once more. But that’s spring here in Colorado — and I can’t complain. We are thankful for every drop of moisture here!
Big News! I have created another journal/planner, and I’m so excited to share it with you! It’s called Garden Notes — and it is the perfect little notebook for gardeners of all types. I have been using a garden journal for a few years, but none of them were quite right. They were either too detailed, not detailed enough, too fancy or too basic. I needed something practical. So I created one myself, and it seems to be JUST RIGHT!

Technically, this won’t be available until April in the Owl and Ember shop. However, I know many people, like me, are getting their gardens going now! So, for our subscribers, we are offering Early Bird Access. On March 15 (yes, the Ides of March — no reason to beware), subscribers to Mid Modern Mama and Owl and Ember will recieve a early-ordering link. Our early order supplies are limited, but we want our gardening friends to be able to use Garden Notes as soon as possible!
From the Garden Notes product description:
Garden Notes
Garden Notes is a simple notebook: a place to make notes about your garden. It looks both forward and backward: both journal and planner. It’s a place to mark the months and the sowing which lies ahead as well as to reflect on the blossoms and harvests as the weeks of your growing season slip past. As you garden, year upon year, it also becomes a record. What flourished? What perished? When did the tulips emerge? The carrots ripen? The dahlias sing?
Whether you are a beginning gardener, a small flower farmer, or a dabbler with pots on a balcony, Garden Notes gives you a place to noodle about your plot of earth. With blank space for sketching, spots for list-making, lines and dots, and lots of freedom, this notebook leaves room for making it your own while providing just enough suggestions to help you get started, too.
Garden Notes is the perfect gardening journal – created by Angela, a passionate gardener, and designed by Holly. In creating this journal, Angela looked at the scribbled notes she keeps about her own garden – pasted into a not-perfect journal. She considered the notes she and other gardeners want to keep:
What is planted where?
When was it planted?
When was it harvested?How well did it do?
What should we change next year?
Those big questions are particularly important when a garden is buried in snow, but the gardener like Angela is ordering seeds and plotting for spring. Frustrated by gardening journals that just didn’t quite work, she created her own. The result is Garden Notes – a beautiful, simple notebook with room for everything.
Garden Notes is designed for every plant-lover on your list! I’ll be creating a video sneak peek later this week, so be sure to watch for that to come, too!
