Public garden planner
Build your own kai plan.
Start with a plain-language description, edit the beds, choose what your whanau eats, then get planting and soil-care recommendations for June.
This plan saves locally in this browser.
Step 3
What kind of garden?
Pick the outcome and effort level first. The planner will choose sensible defaults for the space, then you can switch individual crops on or off later if needed.
17.28 m2 total bed area.
Current recommendation: Expanded family kitchen garden.
0 fruit trees, berries, herbs, or larger food-producing assets tracked.
Recommended garden type
Expanded family kitchen garden
Use the extra space for year-round salads, herbs, leafy greens, summer fruiting crops, and a few optional add-ons.
17.28 m2 with 1 hr/week means the plan should stage work in small strips rather than fill every bed at once.
Keep the basics on by default.
Use toggles for roots, warm add-ons, and larger crops.
Rest or cover spare/weedy beds until their planting month.
What matters most?
Capacity and cost
Fruit trees and perennials
Add food-producing plants outside the vegetable beds so Kai Grow can remind you about pruning, feeding, mulch, and pest checks.
Recognises common fruit trees, citrus, berries, perennial herbs, bananas, grapes, passionfruit, and macadamia blocks.
No property assets added yet. Start with a lemon tree, apple trees, berries, perennial herbs, bananas, or a larger block like macadamias.
