Raised Beds & Trellis Beds
Raised beds are the best way to make gardening easy. For more info see Raised Beds and the Benefits of Growing Vertically with Trellis Beds.
Choosing the materials for the frames.
It took a lot of research to decide on the perfect material for the frames of our raised beds. Plain wood attracts termites and other bugs and will rot in a season or two. Railroad ties have creosote, which is a poison. Composite decking materials contain wood fiber and attract mold when in constant contact with soil. It can be cleaned, but it is difficult.
Three designs are available, a standard 3’x8′ bed, and a 3’x8′ trellis bed and a new 3’x4′ elevated bed. (Dimensions are outside measurements.)
We now offer the trellis and raised bed kits with a food-grade organic stain applied!
