NON-FICTION, CALENDAR & GARDEN PLANNER
It is now clear that man-made climate change is causing many problems: insect mortality, heat waves, floods. According to the UN climate report, however, we can still turn the tide if we get started now. But where should we start? Exactly, on our own doorstep!
The Perma Calendar is your construction manual for an insect-friendly and climate-adapted garden, balcony or backyard.
... is planning a beautiful, natural garden, balcony or patio.
... wants to go through the world with more mindfulness.
... wants to experience the effects of climate change with their own eyes and take action.
... is looking for a beautiful and sustainable designed gift.
This is how we developed and financed the sustainable calendar:
With crowdfunding, we were able to convince over 250 nature lovers to finance the Perma Calendar. We produced it as sustainably as possible, with eco inks on 100% recycled paper, right around the corner in Erlangen.
THE STRUCTURE
The perma calendar is a garden planner, non-fiction book and birthday calendar all in one - a true all-round package. Oriented on the structure of the phenological calendar, it invites you to observe and document. Phenological seasons are not nailed down to a specific date, but are different every year, depending on the onset of developments in the surrounding nature. You can recognize them with the help of so-called indicator plants.
As often as you like, if desired also each individual day, you can note your observations, note findings and immortalize temperatures and weather. The calendar is designed for three years, which you can choose freely - they do not have to be consecutive years.
So you can easily compare climate & conspicuities over the years. In addition, the calendar offers you enough space to note other special events, such as the birthday of your loved ones, or even when you planted which plant or sowed seeds.
Climate change affects us all! But where do I start? Exactly, it's best to start by sweeping your own front door - on your terrace or balcony.
To help your "green thumb" on the jump, you will find in the Perma calendar for each season proven tips & tricks from gardening expert Sabine, which make your gardening life easy.
When the garden has gone quiet in the winter, it is the best time to start planning for the coming gardening year.
