Figure 2.5 to 3 cubic yards of garden soil for a 10×10 vegetable garden filled 8 inches deep — and 4 yards for a full 12-inch raised fill. The math: 100 sq ft × 8 ÷ 324 = 2.5 yards, and at 12 inches it's 3.7, so order 4. Either amount fits a single 6-yard soil load.
10×10 garden fill amounts
| Fill depth | Math | Order |
|---|---|---|
| 8" tilled bed | 2.5 yd | 3 yd |
| 12" raised bed | 3.7 yd | 4 yd |
Mid-April is the moment — fill now, let a week of rain settle it, and the bed is ready for Memorial Day tomatoes. Garden Soil is the ready-to-plant blend; run other bed sizes through the material calculator.
