Color and Learn Gardening for Beginner Gardeners! LEARN. COLOR. GROW!

​​

  • Are you a parent or an individual who is clueless about gardening and doesn't even know where to begin?
     

  • Do you often wish there was a simple and convenient way to learn how to garden?


Look no further, I have the perfect solution for you! Experience an interactive book that will guide you through the fundamental principles in bite-sized sentences, ensuring that you retain the knowledge. And to add a touch of fun, you can also color the humorous illustrations as you learn!

This revolutionary and uncomplicated method of acquiring gardening knowledge is ideal for novice gardeners. The ingenious idea is the brainchild of a devoted homeschooling mother and avid gardener who noticed the distinct learning styles of her six children.

With gardening being a vast subject, it can be overwhelming for beginners to absorb all the information. Instead, each coloring book in this series focuses on a single topic and presents only the essential information required for success. You read a few sentences, view a visual representation, and then color it in to reinforce the concept. This three-step approach not only makes learning fun but also stimulates your senses, aiding in retention.

The Color and Learn Gardening Series is crafted to cater to the comprehension level of an 8-year-old, while being suitable for individuals of all ages.

 

Its straightforward approach ensures that anyone, regardless of their gardening background, can easily grasp, acquire knowledge, and enjoy the gardening experience.

This curriculum is ideal for schools or homeschooling families seeking a fun and engaging way to teach gardening.

Designed by a real gardener of 20 years+!

As a gardener, it is essential to have a gardening journal and logbook. Despite your best intentions, it is easy to forget where you planted certain plants, names of your fruit trees, or the names of the different types of garden plants you planted by the time fall rolls around. This journal and logbook will eliminate those forgetful moments and provide even more benefits!


 

Everything Homemade Gardening
Journal & Logbook

Untitled Design(3).png

My frustration with not finding a journal and logbook that met my specific needs led me to design this book. I discovered that most books were too small, lacking in writing space, and filled with unnecessary information unrelated to my location or gardening zone. So, I took matters into my own hands and created my own version.


 

Untitled Design(4).png

This gardening journal and logbook is designed to be the size of a typical sheet of paper. It features a Quick Monthly Overview Calendar, a Reminder/Wish List, Suppliers List, Garden Designing Area, Detailed Plant List, and Extra Notes section. The ample space allows for writing, drawing, and attaching plant tags or any other necessary materials. It truly caters to all of your gardening needs.
