A new 2005 gardening wall calendar, Nurturing Nature, offers simple, daily gardening tips with a regional slant.

It also points users to virtual plant walks, a database of 500 New England plants, accurate weather forecasts, and Master Gardener classes, and includes moon phases, U.S. holidays, space for notes, and a 2006 calendar grid.

The calendar, produced by Communications and Information Technology, a part of the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, is an ideal gift for gardeners and other nature lovers. It costs $9.95 plus postage for a total of $12.25. Order some today, and don’t forget about yourself.
