WE LIVE A BUSY LIFE ON THE FARM…
and my hope is that Navigate provides a tool that would help bring calm to a life where balance is a bit of a myth. I love day planners, making lists and journals, I have always been searching for a planner that would incorporate every aspect of my life on the farm housed in one place. After sharing the idea of creating a planner of my own with my daughter, we created Navigate.
It all begins with an idea.
From a garden map to a day planner…the story of Navigate.
A Tool for your tool box
Whether you are in the stage of life where you are chasing kids or chasing cows, this is a tool you need for your tool box.
Navigate is Perfect for:
Anyone and everyone - when I created Navigate I didn’t have one group in mind. When you break down the different aspects of the planner there is something for everyone.
-
Navigate provides check lists for everything on the farm. The planner provides areas to your month, the week and each day. The back portion of the planner provides resources for conversions ( bushels to pounds ), seasonal checklists, budgeting and the garden map. You can keep your reminders for crop insurance, sale days and when the land taxes are due. It will become one of the most important tools on the farm.
-
Navigate is the tool you need in your business. It is full of resources for budgeting, planning and reflecting on the past year to help you move forward stronger and better. We have areas to provide you support when you feeling overwhelmed and places to share your gratitude for a job well done.
-
Navigate is for you!! It is a book to keep everything organized, from the kids schedules to doctor appointments. There is a sturdy pocket in the back to keep all the newsletters and important papers. You can use Navigate to help you remember all the firsts in your life. The tool that will make your tool belt complete.

DIGITAL MARKETING
In 2020 Alison brought the idea of Navigate to her daughter Amanda. At the time Amanda was 9 months pregnant with her third son, it was a good thing he was 8 days over due, she needed the extra time to turn Alison’s sketches into a digital format that you see printed today.

We love that each day has so much space to fill in, there is a section just for farm, farm/ business and there is a monthly focus section! We also love the quotes scattered throughout that are relevant to women in ag! It’s the perfect cross between a day planner and a journal which is perfect for any rural woman, because we are busy!”

“THE NAVIGATE PLANNER HAS… provided me with the perfect balance of professional organization and personal journaling. It includes the space for documenting detail, encouragement through uplifting quotes and practical agricultural reference points. As a mom, volunteer, and CEO, this planner helps ensure I make space for healthy reflection and still stay on track with my daily goals. It is a beautifully designed lifesaver that I continue to share as a gift to friends, family and coworkers.”

“I am at the height of my Busy Mom Era, combined with a very hectic farm life. I rely on my Navigate (Journal? Calendar?) daily to keep me organized and on track. I also frequently look at the past editions to remember things like garden planting layouts and farm records. I would be completely lost without it!”
