Covers and trellises for raised beds
A maker’s cover or trellis is made for its own beds, in the layouts it is sold for. Here are the ones sold for the beds we list, each with the layouts it fits as the maker states it. For any other bed, size a hoop cover or build a trellis.

For a bed no maker’s cover fits
The hoop cover calculator works out how many hoops a bed needs, how long to cut each from 10 ft conduit or PVC, and the size of cover to buy, from the bed’s width and length. The trellis plan builds a 6 ft frame and net from three 2 × 4s for a board bed.
