To use our calculator, you will need: the length and width of the bed (or area you’re mulching), and the depth of soil/mulch.

For raised beds, be sure to check out the Hugelkulter method to reduce using the “good stuff” for the whole bed. Learn more about this method here. Also, consider using leaves as mulch during fall.
