Who it's for

PlotsFarm for orchards and berry patches

Perennial rows

Forty blueberry bushes planted in 2021, a row of figs, two rows of blackberries on a trellis, and a June that arrives all at once. A perennial row does not run on a one-season clock, and the picking weeks are the whole year's revenue. PlotsFarm tracks a perennial planting for years instead of one season, counts the harvest by row, pre-sells the flats, and books the costs against the row, on one login with the vegetable beds.

What it fixes for orchards and berry patches

The problem

Forty blueberry bushes planted in 2021 are not a planting that starts in March and ends in October. Every annual planner asks you to re-enter them each spring or leaves them blocking a bed all winter.

What PlotsFarm does

Rows that keep their years

Fruit trees and berries have their own orchards pages. A perennial planting carries a life stage you set and a season phase PlotsFarm works out each day from your frost dates, so a row resting in winter is resting, not gone. Harvest totals span years per row, and adding the same variety on the next row is one duplicate action.

The problem

June arrives all at once. The flats are picked Thursday and have to be gone by Saturday, and the people who wanted them find out too late or show up when the cooler is empty.

What PlotsFarm does

Flats sold before you pick

Put the flat on your public farm page with a Thursday cutoff and a Saturday pickup, and bind it to the week's lot so the page stops selling when the cooler is spoken for. Buyers pay by card without an account. Orders arrive as a push while you are on the ladder, and the pick list says how many flats to pack per pickup.

The problem

Mulch, netting, and a Saturday of pruning went into Row 3 this year, and the only number you have is what the whole farm spent. Whether the figs pay for their row is a guess.

What PlotsFarm does

Cost per row, net per crop

Book mulch, fertilizer, netting, and labor against a planting, a bed, a field, or the farm across six cost categories, with the season year kept separate from the day you paid. Water cost books itself from your irrigation zones. Log each picking against its row, and the crops report ranks every crop by net, so the figs and the blackberries are compared on the same page as the tomatoes.

Crop planning

A section built for perennial rows

The crop library includes fruit trees and berries alongside vegetables and cut flowers. A perennial planting is planted once and tracked for years: a life stage you set, a season phase worked out from the phenology catalog and your frost dates, a years row, and harvest totals that span years, so a blueberry row is not forced into a single-season bar. End a planting when a bush is pulled, or replant the row.

Harvests and inventory

Pickings counted by row

Log a picking against its row one at a time or in bulk at the end of a crew morning. Each harvest becomes a lot with on hand, committed, and available columns and a shelf life that flags flats within three days of turning. Multi-year totals per row show which planting earns its space. A count typed wrong in June is fixed in July without losing history.

Online store and pre-orders

Pre-sell the flats before you pick

Your public farm page lists flats, pints, and preserves beside any share you run. A weekly order window lets you pick to orders, and lot-bound products keep the page honest about what is in the cooler. Buyers pay by card with no account. Orders arrive as a push while you are on the ladder, and the pick list builds itself per pickup.

Costs and performance

Cost per row, not per season

Book mulch, fertilizer, netting, and labor against a planting, a bed, a field, or the farm across six cost categories, with the season year kept separate from the day you paid. Water cost books itself from your irrigation zones. The crops report ranks each crop by net, so the figs and the blackberries get compared on the same page as the tomatoes.
