The paid almanac
Your trees. Your climate. Your year.
The free site answers “will it grow here?” My Orchard answers the harder question: what do I do to my trees this month? Save your real trees and get a per-tree care calendar anchored to your ZIP or postal code’s frost dates — with email reminders and a permanent log.
What you get
Per-tree calendars
Every tree, every month
Prune, thin, spray-timing, and harvest windows computed from your location’s 10-year frost and chill record — not a generic “prune in late winter.”
Reminders
Email when a window opens
A day-of note when a task window starts, and a Monday digest of the week ahead. Nothing to check; it comes to you.
Pollination alerts
Gaps in your orchard, flagged
If a tree you add has no compatible partner among your trees, we tell you — and suggest partners that bloom with it.
The diary
A year-over-year record
Typed entries — pruned, thinned, harvested with quantity, first bloom, pests — with photos, rolled into a per-tree timeline you can compare season to season. Exports to CSV/JSON whenever you want it.
Harvest prediction
When to pick, for your tree
Log full bloom and get a picking window anchored to your date — a fixed calendar is wrong most years — plus the cited maturity checks that decide ripeness.
Spring frost reference
Know your bud-stage risk
The critical temperatures that damage buds at each stage, with your location’s historical last-frost window. Cited to WSU/MSU — information, never advice.

Questions
- What does My Orchard actually do?
- You save the fruit trees you actually grow and your ZIP or postal code. For each tree you get a month-by-month care calendar — pruning, thinning, spray timing windows, harvest — anchored to your local frost dates and chill hours, plus email reminders when a task window opens and a permanent log of what you did.
- Does it work in Canada?
- Yes. We cover roughly 35,000 US ZIP codes and Canadian postal areas, with both USDA-equivalent and NRCan hardiness zones for Canadian locations.
- What's free and what's paid?
- Free accounts hold one tree and show the current month's tasks. The paid plan — $3 per month (with a 7-day free trial) or $29 per year — unlocks unlimited trees, the full 12-month calendar for every tree, email reminders, the diary, harvest prediction, frost reference, and export.
- What happens to my log if I cancel?
- Your data stays yours: you can export your trees and log as CSV or JSON at any time, and you can delete your account (and all of its data) yourself. There's also a 30-day self-serve refund.
- Where does the care guidance come from?
- The care timing comes from university-extension and government sources, cited — the same standard as the rest of the site (variety chill and zone figures add nursery specifications where that is the only published number, always labeled). Spray tasks give timing windows only — never products or doses — and always point you to your local extension for product choices.
