A few things you might be wondering

Good questions before you grow.

Do I need gardening experience to use Little Yardstead?

No. The tools are meant to help you get started, whether this is your first pot of herbs or you have gardened for years. Start with the space you have and the foods you enjoy.

Can I plan a garden with just containers?

Yes. You can plan with pots and containers as well as raised beds, so a balcony or a few containers can be a real starting point.

Which locations do the gardening tools cover?

Little Yardstead is currently built around locations in the United States. You can select a state and use a U.S. city and state for location-based growing-season guidance. Recommendations are a starting point, so check them against your local conditions.

Can I use the tools on my phone?

Yes. Little Yardstead works in your web browser and its pages adapt to smaller screens. You can use a phone, tablet, or computer; there is no app to install.

Is the $40 payment recurring?

No. The standard $40 purchase is a one-time payment, not a subscription. It includes access to the current planning tools and occasional updates to those tools while the hosted service is available. Hosting is not guaranteed for life, and separate future products may cost extra.
