UMass Extension’s 2022 calendar continues the tradition of providing gardeners with useful and practical information. The daily tips and find the daily sunrise/sunset times are another highlight.

The 2022 Garden Calendar's featured article is “Keystone Plant Species for Caterpillars.” While gardeners don’t always think of hungry caterpillars as desirable, robust caterpillar populations are important food resources that support bird populations. Learn about the top 5 most important plant genera that support caterpillar populations, which in turn helps feed the birds.

As always, each month features:

• An inspiring garden image.
• Daily gardening tips for Northeast growing conditions.
• Daily sunrise and sunset times.
• Phases of the moon.
• Plenty of room for notes.

Low gloss paper for easy writing.
