The problem
Garden apps don't know
what you eat.
Every garden planning app assumes you want tomatoes, basil, and zucchini. But what if your kitchen runs on tomatillos and epazote? Or perilla and gochugaru? Or methi and pavakkai? No app helps you grow the food you actually cook.
Mexican
Tomatillos, jalapeños, epazote, cilantro, Oaxacan squash, heirloom corn
Korean
Perilla, gochugaru peppers, Korean radish, napa cabbage, Korean cucumber
Southern US
Heirloom collards, okra, field peas, sweet potatoes, hot peppers
Italian

And more growing
Ethiopian, Japanese, Caribbean, Middle Eastern, West African, Southeast Asian - tell us what you cook.
How it works
Three layers. One garden.
Come for the crops your kitchen actually uses. Stay for the daily guidance that helps you grow them well.
Tell us your kitchen
What cuisines do you cook? Where do you live? How much space do you have? We build your profile, kitchen-first.
Get your plan
Personalized bed plans with companion planting and succession timing, sized for raised beds, containers, or whatever space you've got.
Grow with daily care
Not a plan-and-forget app. Daily tasks, pest alerts, harvest windows, and soil-temp triggers keep your garden thriving all season.
Why this is different
What happens when you search
for the crops you actually grow.
Inside Rooted
This is what a care guide looks like.
Every crop gets a guide with real growing advice for your zone - not generic tips pulled from the internet.
Bitter Gourd (Pavakkai)
Built from a real garden
This isn't a concept. It's already growing.
Rooted grew out of The Minuteman Plot, a real kitchen garden tool built in Lexington, MA. From South Asian greens to New England root vegetables, it's been planned, planted, and maintained through a full season. Now we're making it work for everyone.
