Raised garden bed! 🪴

I came home to such an amazing surprise from my hubby! I’ve been asking for a raised garden bed but knew we needed to wait since we are about to drop a pretty penny on our backyard but this man got me the one I’ve been eyeing plus all the garden tools, gloves for me and the kids and even plants to get started plus a tons of seeds!!

I’m so excited! If you need me I’ll be planting and watching these babies grow 🥹

planted now are baby Tomatoes and strawberries 🍓 🍅

... Read moreRaised garden beds provide numerous benefits for home gardeners, such as improved soil quality, better drainage, and reduced labor for planting and maintaining plants. These elevated beds also allow for easier access, making gardening more enjoyable for everyone, including children. When selecting materials for your raised garden bed, consider using rot-resistant wood like cedar or composite materials that are durable and eco-friendly. In terms of planting, starting with easy-to-grow vegetables like tomatoes and strawberries is an excellent option for beginners. These plants thrive in raised beds due to the controlled environment that enhances growth and reduces pests. Additionally, incorporating companion planting can further increase yields and reduce the need for chemical pesticides. Remember to test your soil and add organic matter such as compost to provide nutrients. Happy gardening!

A partially assembled wooden raised garden bed sits on grass, with a person's legs and a child in the background. The image has text overlay 'DIY RAISED GARDEN BEDS' and a small plant icon.
Various cut wooden boards are laid out on the grass, labeled with dimensions: 2 ft, 4 ft, and approximately 18 inches. Text indicates these boards will form a 4 ft x 2 ft x 18 inches raised garden bed.
A close-up shows a person using a red power drill to attach a 2 ft long wooden board to an 18-inch tall 4x4 post, forming part of the raised garden bed structure.

My husband and I are attempting to make our dream of a little home garden a reality… So today we took the first steps to build it. We opted for raised garden beds this year because our soil is not in the best condition at the moment, so we will be working on getting the rest of our soil in bett

The easiest raised garden beds
The easiest (and cheapest) large garden beds I’ve made. For one garden bed you will need: -2 10x2x12 boards - 8 concrete retaining wall blocks That’s it. I cut the boards into 8 foot pieces which left me with 2 4 foot pieces for the width. Lined them up In the concrete blocks and voila.

An infographic titled 'WRONG DEPTH, WASTED ROOTS' illustrates optimal raised bed depths for various crops. It shows 6-inch beds for lettuce, radishes, herbs; 12-inch for peppers, bush beans, cucumbers; 18-inch for tomatoes, carrots, potatoes; and 24-inch for asparagus, sweet potatoes, and artichokes, emphasizing matching depth to root needs.
Pick the right height for a raised bed.
Every raised bed the same height means some crops get too little soil and others get more than they'll ever use. Each crop's root system needs a specific depth. Too shallow and roots hit bottom, fork, and starve the plant. Too deep and you're paying for soil that nothing reaches.
