Soil For Raised Beds

Soil For Raised Beds

Raised Vegetable Bed Soil Volumes Our Raised vegetable beds come in all shapes and sizes and each has a different soil volume requirement. It is very easy to underestimate the amount of soil needed to fill a raised bed so it’s worth checking before buying multiple beds. Below is a handy table showing the volume of soil in litres for each of our raised bed kits. Compost and soil generally comes in 60 Litre bags, so if you want to know how many bags it will take to fill your raised beds, just divide the litre figures below by 60.
