Your Content
Content you enter into your garden journal — including plant records, diary entries, and garden details — remains yours. You grant us a limited licence to store and display that content solely for the purpose of providing the service to you.
You are responsible for any content you submit. We do not claim ownership of your personal garden data, and we will not share it with third parties except as described in our Privacy Policy.
Our Content
All other content on this site — including the plant database, growing guides, biodynamic calendar, articles, illustrations, and design — is owned by or licensed to White Pebble Projects. It is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.
You may browse and use this content for your own personal, non-commercial gardening purposes. You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, or create derivative works from our content without our written permission.
Growers Directory
The Growers Directory contains listings for nurseries, garden designers, suppliers, bloggers, and other businesses. These listings are provided for informational purposes only.
We do not endorse, verify, or take responsibility for any business, service, or content listed in the directory. Any dealings you have with listed businesses are between you and them. We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from such dealings.
If you submit a listing or review, you confirm that the information is accurate and that you have the right to submit it. We reserve the right to remove any listing or review at our discretion.
Gardening Advice
The growing guides, biodynamic information, and gardening advice on this site are provided for general informational purposes only. While we aim for accuracy, gardening outcomes depend on many factors including soil conditions, climate, local weather, and individual skill.
We make no guarantee that following any advice on this site will produce particular results. Always use your own judgement and, where appropriate, consult a qualified horticultural professional.
Advertising
This site displays advertisements served by Google AdSense. These ads help us keep the service free. Advertisements are clearly distinguished from editorial content.
We do not endorse any products or services advertised on this site. The appearance of an advertisement does not constitute our recommendation of the advertiser or their products.
Disclaimer of Warranties
The Gardeners Calendar is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, White Pebble Projects shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of — or inability to use — this site or its content.
Our total liability to you for any claim arising from your use of the site shall not exceed the amount you have paid to us in the twelve months preceding the claim. As the service is currently free, this amount is zero.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot be excluded under English law.

This site may contain links to third-party websites. These links are provided for your convenience only. We have no control over the content of those sites and accept no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them.

We may update these terms from time to time. We will note the date of the most recent revision at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.
If we make material changes, we will make reasonable efforts to notify registered users.
