Terms of Service

Terms of Service

Last updated: August 2026

These terms cover your use of gardenkinds.com. Using the site means you accept them. If you don’t, please don’t use it.

Using Our Content

Read it, print it for your own use, and link to it as much as you like — links are welcome and no permission is needed.

What you can’t do is republish our articles, copy substantial sections into your own posts, or reproduce our images elsewhere without written permission. If you want to quote a paragraph and credit us with a link back, email and ask. The answer is usually yes.

Our Content Is General Information

Everything here is written to be useful, but it’s general guidance, not advice tailored to your garden, your soil, or your building. Anything involving structure, gas, electricity, fire, or a retaining wall needs a qualified professional and, in many places, a permit. Our disclaimer covers this in more detail and is worth reading before you start a project.

Accuracy

We check what we publish and update it when things change. Even so, planting dates vary by region, prices move, plant names get reclassified, and regulations differ between councils and states. Verify anything that carries cost or risk against a local source before you act on it.

Links to Other Sites

We link out to horticultural societies, suppliers, and manufacturers where they add something. Those sites are not ours and we’re not responsible for what they publish or how they handle your data.

Affiliate and Advertising Links

Some links earn us a commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you. This doesn’t influence what we recommend. Sponsored content is labelled.

Comments and Submissions

If comments are open, keep them civil and on topic. We remove spam, abuse, and anything promotional. By posting, you give us permission to display and moderate what you’ve written.

Availability

We aim to keep the site up and running but can’t promise uninterrupted access. Pages get revised, moved, or retired as content is updated.

Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, gardenkinds.com is not liable for loss, damage, injury, or cost arising from your use of this site or from acting on anything published here. Nothing in these terms limits liability where the law says it can’t be limited.

Changes

These terms may be revised. The date at the top shows when they last were, and continuing to use the site means you accept the current version.

Getting in Touch
