        <h2>Introduction</h2>
        <div class="section-container">
          <p>
            This handy tool helps plan your intensively planted,
            organic, no-dig, home vegetable/flower garden.  Just
            select your first and last frost dates and a planting
            schedule will be generated for you.  Click on a crop's
            name to view additional details about that crop.
          </p>
          <p>
            The algorithm works by using generalized information about
            different types of crops such as average weeks to maturity,
            whether direct sowing or transplanting is preferred, weeks
            between plantings for continuous harvests, when and how a fall
            crop should be planted (if applicable), etc.  Such
            generalizations could never hope to capture the true
            complexity of growing vegetables and flowers, but it
            should serve as a useful reference point so that you don't
            get lost in the weeds during the growing season and forget
            to sow the next crop of bush beans.
          </p>
          <p>
            This planner works best for gardeners located in the nothern
            areas of the northern hemisphere (USDA zone 7 and below)
            where we need to start many summer crops indoors and
            cannot harvest during winter without season extension.
            All planting dates are made under the assumption that no
            season extension techniques are being applied.
            Transplanting is preferred wherever possible for a head
            start in spring, more reliable germination, and to
            increase the opportunities for succession planting.
            However, many plants can be direct sown on their
            transplant day, instead.
