I would buy several as soon as I can. I, too live by my day planner, as it's too easy to miss something that is important to me. And spiral binding is a great feature. Can I help it bring to reality?

yes, I was just going over my planner from 2012 and was so surprised at all the little tips I had written and the plants cuttings I had taped and this is the first time I have been able to start gardening -retired and loving all the new things I'm learning! But yeah, planners are a good thing!

Agree with LaurenTany: somewhere like a 5 X 8 size or so, big enough to have room to write your appointments in, yet still small enough to fit in your pocketbook.

I would be interested in a MJF day planner.
While I was working I went to a Franklin Time Management class and still use their method today.
When you enter a task or event there are 4 ways to track it.
A dot means you are working on it. An arrow means you are moving it to another time/date. A check means it is completed. An X means you are no longer interested in it.
Have a blessed day, Sara FarmGirl Sister #6034 8/25/14 Lord put your arm around my shoulders and your hand over my mouth.

I like all the suggestions. For me, spiral bound would work best. Having a pollinator plan on my place, there's lots of 'pages' to keep up with. Add a section for gardening notes and you've got my vote.

Mary Jane are you thinking on this any? I have thought many times that I wished I could find a Farmish planner for a girl like me. I actually made sketches for one once! lol!! Thought I might get my own printed. I am sure one from you would be amazing!!

You know I found a gardening type day planner for notes about gardening and such at the thrift store one day. It was so pretty and vintage that I didn't have the heart to write in it.

I'd love to start 2016 a with a Mary Jane planner! I love all the suggestions; sized big enough for busy Farmgirls but just small enough to go in a purse, blank pages for notes and ideas, photos, tips, MJF inspiration . . . Woo hoo!

I would like one too! Let me see if I can find more hours in the day:) Stranger things have happened. Ring binder, right? Tell me more. What size? Only seven days on a page? Can you give me examples?

MaryJane for the last several years I have bought my planner from Dollar General. Here's the info on it:
8" X 5" - I keep planner on my computer desk. It's small enough to put in handbag or tote.
Ring Bound
When the planner is opened flat there are 3 days MTW on left side and 4 days TFSS on right. Sat & Sun share bottom third of page. Each day has 10 lines.
The planner is divided into 3 sections: Monthly - Weekly - Addresses/Notes
I only use the weekly section - have separate address book.
Others may use all sections or have other wants & needs.
Wishes: Jubilee & Apple Festival days noted - also a place just for planning them.
As for color and accents I'll leave it up to you and your talented gang. What ever y'all come up with will be just what I want.

ClaireSky, we'll play around with costing, etc. this week and let you know if a planner's a go. We've been working on our 2016 calendar and it will be available next week I believe.

I love the idea of a weekly planner - I am big on having holidays on the dates and room to write lots of things (I like to write a menu on there as well, for dinner) for each day... I too find the address book an unnecessary extra, as I am not going to rewrite my addresses from year to year. Spiral books seem to last much better than hardback books. I also like daily planners where a page (or at least half a page) is designated per day.

I agree. We've ordered some supplies. We shall see. Carol has been home sick the last couple of days, delaying work on our calendar.
