Leave a Review Farm Your Yard
Just found out how to select varieties!
I’ve been using this app about a week, seeing if I want to replace my spreadsheet and paper system… it seemed generally useful at first, but not much more than the paper veggie gardening calendar our local extension office puts out… but I just figured out that if you tap on a veggie in your garden plan, you can add notes and pick a variety! **FEATURE REQUESTS:**I do wish there were a way for me to track yields tied to location … I know what I’m predicted to yield but that’s not the same as having a record of actual yield and in which spot certain things did better or worse. I also plant heirloom varieties and wish there was a way to type my own variety label in. Also when you add a second variety of the same thing later, the things seem to be sorted in “order added” so you might have beets at the top and bottom of the list, rather than being sorted alphabetically and also sorted by “next action required”Show lessLa_bibliotecaria
AMAZING!
This is the best! Exactly what I needed to organize all the plants I want in my garden. What they need, when to plant IN MY ZONE, how to water, what container size, what light… literally everything! I actually feel like I can be successful this year with the help of this app!Jivetime1
Promising, but could use some tweaks
First of all, I really like the concept of this. We have a very small yard that we’re working with, and seeing the goal of growing 10% of our food is very encouraging as a beginner gardener.
There are some bugs and other issues. Recently, if I click on an individual veggie to check the tasks, the app freezes up every time. I also wish there was a way to edit the calendar, because it seems a month or two ahead of what my zone actually does. For instance, it’s saying to harvest my tomatoes, and they’re still in the stage of flowering and small green ones! But I think this app has a lot of promise, once those get worked out. I hope they also expand on their fruit options in the future, because I’d love to track my blueberries in this.Show lesssunnyb6442
New to gardening
I love this app. I’m horrible with organizing anything and this app helps plan what needs to be planted and when. It’s zone specific too. Definitely recommend downloading it.Ashlum9
Shows promise
Pretty good design, love the planting times and reminder features, but with no option to search, you have to scroll thru the entire list to find plants you’re growing to add.. and if you’re growing something that’s not listed.. there’s just nothing you can do. Also, no way to add journal entries or photos of plants from what I could see, which is important to me as I’m a beginner and still learning how things grow.
Definitely could be useful, but not going to be using it until those features are addedShow lessril00

Thanks for your feedback on journaling features. Once you create an account, the button is replaced with the search box.A Great Gardening Calendar
This app helped me plan my garden and figure out what to plant and when to plant them. And all the tips and information about each plant is really helpful too!dm.mom
The most recent update broke the app
I was really enjoying the app. I had my 2022 garden fully planned and had just started my first round of seeds when the developers rolled out an update. With this update, they promised some really nice features but I have been unable to use them. When I open the app, every screen is a loading screen. A circle just spins and spins and spins and I can no longer access my garden plans. I guess it’s my fault for not having them written down somewhere else as a backup, and relying too heavily on an app, but it’s totally screwed up the timing on my entire garden. I have updated my own phone, and have done every new update on this app since they did the initial update, hoping for a bug fix, but to no avail. I have lost all of my data and the ideal dates for planting specific seeds are gone. I am devastated that I will have to start from scratch with another app, and I know for certain I am already behind on planting some of my seeds.Show lessAngelphishy500

We are so sorry to hear that. Please email feedback@farmyouryard.org and let’s figure out what the issue is together. Thanks.Awesome! Highly Recommend
This app is incredibly useful for planning out your garden and knowing when to plant what.
Only thing I’d like to see is a bit better UI for viewing all the information about planting, pruning, etc.soccer924
Everything I’ve been waiting for
This awesome app gives you the ability to choose what you are planting, then maps out what needs to be done and when it should be done. Thank you for the easiest and in depth planting charts to gauge what needs to be done.Mr. Big Rick
I want to use but there’s a bug
It seems like a great concept except it deletes all of the plants in my garden randomly and doesn’t let me add new ones. My calendar just shows up as blank and won’t let me add plants until I uninstall and reinstall the app.MS1847281938472891
