The app's planning tools, opened up for the web. Figure out what to plant for a year-round harvest, which perennials and fruit trees pay you back for decades, and how to keep pollinators, soil, and remedies working for you.
Lay out a raised bed square by square, pick your crops, and see exactly how many plants fit with square-foot spacing. Saves to your browser.

Two quick interactive helpers for the questions every grower asks.
Four beds, four plant families — move each family along one bed a year so no patch of soil tires out or feeds the same pests twice. Step through the cycle.
The order follows how plants use the soil: legumes fix nitrogen → hungry leaves spend it → fruiting crops feed heavily → light roots finish and break up the ground. Then it begins again.
Pick a crop to see its best neighbors — and the ones to keep apart across the garden.
