About GardenFig

Garden advice fails when it ignores where you actually live. GardenFig is built around your USDA hardiness zone and local freeze dates.

What we do

We turn real climate data — USDA Plant Hardiness Zones and state/county extension freeze-date normals — into actionable, printable plans: planting calendars, lawn schedules, pest treatments, watering and fertilizer math, tool kits, and project budgets.

Why tools, not just articles

Generic "how to garden" content is easily answered by AI overviews. A plan that changes with your state, crop, and inputs — and that you can print and take outside — is something you have to come to the site to use. Every guide on GardenFig embeds a free interactive tool.

Data sources & honesty

Zones follow the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map (2023). Freeze dates are typical 30-year normals published by state cooperative extension services. Where a state spans many zones, we give the bracket and note the range. We do not fabricate numbers; where local variation is large, we tell you to confirm with your county extension.
