Plan the garden
you'll actually
grow.
A visual planner that knows your climate, your beds, and what grows well together, built for the gardener who's tired of guessing.
Most planning apps treat your garden like a spreadsheet. Bare Root treats it like a living thing.
You don't think about your garden in rows and columns. You think about the corner that gets afternoon sun. The bed where tomatoes did well last year. The herbs your kid actually eats. The flowers that bring the pollinators.
So we built something that looks like your garden. Beds you can see from above. Plants that take up the right amount of space. A calendar that knows when YOUR zip code's last frost is, not the generic one printed on a seed packet from someone else's climate.
Drag, drop, and actually see your garden.
Top-down beds with real proportions. Plants take the room they actually need: a tomato claims four cells, lettuce one. Tap to plant, hold to move. Mistakes are cheap.
Knows your zip code. Tells you when to plant.
Your USDA hardiness zone. Your last and first frost dates. A calendar built around YOUR climate, not someone else's. Start-seeds reminders fire at the right week. Frost alerts come before the cold front.
The right thing, at the right week.
Pulled together from each plant's days-to-maturity, your local frost dates, and what you've actually planted. Push and email reminders so you don't miss a sowing window again.
What grows well together, and what won't.
Centuries of gardener wisdom plus modern horticultural research, baked into every cell you tap. The AI layout planner reads your wishlist and builds an arrangement that maximizes friends and keeps enemies apart.
I've been gardening for fifteen years and I've never had a tool actually think the way I think about my beds.
Every season, remembered.
Log harvests, attach photos, rate what worked. Bare Root keeps the record so next year's plan can start from what you already learned.
One tool for the whole season.
