Similar to previous such calendars, each day has a daily gardening tip appropriate to our region, many contributed by Master Gardeners. There are of course holidays and moon dates as well. And each top panel for the month features a topic in more detail:

January—Gifts from the garden
February—Accessorize your garden
March—Gardening in a woodland habitat
April—Gardening along the woodland’s edges
May—Hummingbirds in northern New England
June—The beauty of food
July—Your place in the sun
August—Rock gardens
September—Give your garden the gift of a cover crop
October—Gardening along the water’s edge
November—Naturalize your garden, the butterflies will come
December—Our favorite gardening tools
