Introduction Crop Keeper is an application that will provide the user with the means to layout their gardening space. It will also create reminders for the user.

Once in the design stage, the user will be able to add and remove various markers, lines, and icons as they layout their garden. The application will also feature a task management system to assist the user with keeping track of their gardening tasks. The app will create tasks based on a garden layout. Those tasks will have reminders for when to perform them. Another potential feature would include access to a large database of information about plants.
