Planting Guide Calendar
Growing your own fruit and vegetables at home has a lot of benefits. It gives you access to seasonal produce straight from the garden, Knowing what and when to plant is a challenge. Australia has a diverse and varied climate, this means that depending on where you live dictates what to plant and when.
2024 is the seventh version of the Planting Guide Calendar. There are approximately 60 individual illustrations all hand painted over the twelve months. The 2025 calendar has been designed to be forever artwork. Pages can be cut out of the calendar and framed as individual artworks.
This project started when I was looking personally for a planting guide online. I found it very hard to locate the relevant information in an easy to understand and clear format.
My aim was to start focusing more on growing my own vegetables and herbs at home. I thought it would also be beneficial to turn my research into something that other people could also use and benefit from.

Growing your own fruit and vegetables at home has a lot of benefits. Firstly, it gives you access to seasonal produce straight from the garden, this reduces the distance your food has to travel. Reducing the distance your food travels to your plate increases its sustainability. When purchasing fruit and vegetables, a lot of the time we don’t consider just how far they have travelled, and the wastage associated with that; fuel, storage costs and packaging.
Knowing what to plant and when is a challenge. Australia has a diverse and varied climate, which means that depending on where you live it can dictate what to plant and when.
