Raised Bed with Veggies


On Saturday after our purchase of some Organic Seedlings from a local Charity I had to put together a raised bed. This is my frugal version which will probably rot within 4 years. I used untreated pine (whitewood), but it was very affordable. Total cost was $28.67.
The soil was a little more expensive, but I got bags of Jungle Growth and Miracle Grow Organic garden soil at1.5 cu ft for $5.72. This came to about $75. Putting it together was very straightforward.

The first crops are in, from left to right, Red Russian Kale, Swiss Chard, Early Peas, Calendula, Sunflower, and Summer Magda Squash.

  1. Thanks Andreia, things are looking great so far! Apart from some torrential rains and 35+ mph winds, things are growing.
