See the new raised beds I use: https://shop.epicgardening.com/ Building a raised bed isn’t as hard as it seems. I went on a mission to build the simplest and cheapest raised garden beds possible.
It took me about 15 minutes to build, and cost about $40 to make. Of course, you could save more if you used salvaged materials, but I wanted this to be applicable to people that don’t have anything lying around the house.
Learning how to build a raised garden bed doesn’t have to be difficult, and you don’t have to buy expensive $200 kits or beds from a company if you don’t want to…just follow this guide!
Materials:
โ Planter wall blocks (found at Home Depot)
โ 6 cu ft. soil
โ (2) 2′ 2×6′ boards
โ (2) 6′ 2×6′ boards
โTwine
โ 1″ nails
โ Seeds!
