🌿 Introducing the Prescott Garden Keeping Journal
A monthly guide to high-country gardening, in Prescott Arizona — delivered free to your inbox
If you’ve ever stood in your Prescott garden in early spring, wondering whether it’s really time to prune the roses, or whether that surprise frost will wipe out your tomato starts — you’re not alone.
That’s exactly why I created the Prescott Garden Keeping Journal:
A monthly, hyper-local guide for gardeners in Arizona’s high desert (Zone 7), written from my own experience as a custom landscape designer and year-round gardener right here in Prescott.
What Is the Garden Keeping Journal?
Each month, you’ll get a checklist-style guide that highlights:
What’s happening in the garden right now
What to plant, prune, harvest, or protect
Tips on watering, pest management, and seasonal prep
This is not generic gardening advice — it’s designed for the rhythm of Prescott’s unique four-season, high-altitude climate, where spring can flirt with snow and summer arrives in a flash. Gardening here is unlike anywhere else you’ve likely lived!
