Creating your gardening journal (my tips)

I’ve been thinking a lot this season about how we can make our gardens better and I truly believe that if you change this one habit you can make your garden the envy of all your friends and make you a much better gardener… 110% I believe that some form of gardening journal is the way to go for all gardeners, beginners and experienced gardeners alike.

The key is how you use it and how you make it suit your needs. I’ve been investigating the reasons why gardeners quit keeping a journal and the reasons why others keep journaling and I’ve tested some of these thoughts on myself where I’ve created a system that works for me either as a notebook or as a digital document. I’ve customised the traditional bullet journalling method and made it simple, efficient and more me. Allowing space for organisation in the form of a planner or garden log and space for reflection, to record what’s happening in your garden and your thoughts.
