Which plan suits you?
How Permaplans is different
Most garden apps keep track of what you have already planted. Permaplans plans what you could plant — and shows what it looks like twenty years on.

Common questions about the plans
Can I switch later?
Yes, any time. Your gardens and data are kept.
What happens when the subscription ends?
You fall back to Free. Nothing is deleted, you just cannot create beyond the Free limits any more.
Do the plans include Pacham?
You earn Pacham in every plan by playing, completing tasks and referrals. That also lets you test Premium for a while.
