Raised bed layout planner
Arrange up to six beds, check their outside footprints, leave working paths and compare the reach needed from the sides you can access.
Choose a bed to start with
Measure the inside of the bed
Soil depth is the inside height minus the space you leave empty at the top.
Prepare the spot for this bedLeave space to work around it
Sides refer to the drawing. For round containers, select all four sides to check reach from the whole rim. Layout clearances use the enclosing outside rectangle, including for round beds.

12 inches filled depth · 2 inches left empty at the top
The bed is within your entered 24-inch reach from both long sides.
Use the dimensions you actually plan to fill
All measurement fields change together between inches and centimeters. Leave the space above the soil empty. Extra soil starts at zero; add some only if you want more than the bed holds.
Round containers use a circular cross-section. The tapered-pot option uses the inside top and bottom diameters; a flexible bag may bulge, so a geometric estimate is approximate. For an L-shaped bed, enter non-overlapping rectangular sections as separate beds.
