One more step

Go open your inbox.

Your zone calendar is on its way from Tribe & Trowel right now — it’s waiting in your email, not on this page.

1
Open the email from Tribe & Trowel.

Subject line: “Your Zone Planting Calendar is here”. Give it a minute or two to land.

2
Drag it to your Primary tab & add us to contacts.

That one drag tells your inbox our planting reminders belong in front of you — not in Promotions.

3
Download, print your zone’s page, pin it up.

The dates are already worked out. A calendar on the fridge beats an app you never open.

Nothing after a few minutes? Check Promotions or Spam and drag us out — that’s the fix, and it only takes once.
