Thank you for previewing Gardening for Beginners! I’m currently making updates to the book based on early reader suggestions. These revisions include more in-depth guidance, additional visuals, and refined tips to better support beginner gardeners. Your feedback is helping shape a more complete and inspiring final version, which I am deeply grateful for.

If you’ve had any trouble accessing the free garden planner, I sincerely apologize. The file is hosted via Archive.org, a trusted digital library used by educators, researchers, and librarians worldwide. The planner is provided as a ZIP file so you can access all four sizes in one download. If you’re on a phone or tablet, you may need a free app like iZip or WinZip to open ZIP files.

  *  iZip is completely free to download and use on iOS and Android.

   * WinZip also has mobile apps that are free for basic use. For computers, WinZip offers a free trial, though most modern computers already have built-in ZIP tools.

If you're using a computer and it’s still not working, it may be due to:

    *Using a work computer with restricted downloads

   * Having older software

   * Browser or network settings that block downloads or sites like Archive.org

Please try downloading one of the free apps I mentioned—especially iZip, which is entirely free—or consider visiting your local library, where you can access and print the file. Most libraries offer open internet access and modern computers, making them a reliable option for downloading from Archive.org.

I also want to let you know that in the final edition of the book, I’ll be updating the garden planner download to include just one file (rather than a ZIP with four sizes). This change is being made to ensure the file is easier to access and download for all readers, especially those that may be facing technical restrictions with ZIP files.
