About Garden Gameplan

I spent twenty years figuring out what nobody would just tell me.

I read every book I could find. I kept notes. I adjusted every year and watched what worked. And I watched beginner after beginner hit the same wall I did — not from lack of effort, but from advice written for someone else's climate — and just give up.

The thing that changed everything wasn't a technique. It was the first fancy salad I put on the table where every single thing on it came from my own garden.

That moment is why I built this.

I'm a software engineer and Master Gardener intern. I had twenty years of kitchen garden experience and the technical background to actually build what I always wished existed. My husband Eric — an experienced data engineer — handles the data infrastructure underneath it.

The result is garden intelligence made for your exact ZIP code. A coach on your counter all year — one that knows your climate, your frost dates, and exactly where you are in the season. Downloadable PDFs that give you exactly what you need in the season you are in. And a free planting calendar that shows you what to plant right now in your area.

Because that dinner is waiting for you too. See what I grow on Instagram @kitchengardensdaily.
