Garden Bed

Urban Gardens

DIY Network experts give tips on growing vegetables in raised beds. It takes less space, while allowing vegetables to be grown closer together.

I built these raised garden beds for two reasons, the first was to avoid the back pain that my father feels when bent over a traditional raised bed for weeding, the second was to keep the dog out of the garden. I built three boxes, one for Strawberries, one for Herbs, and the last for Veggies like tomatoes and lettuce. I did not take step by step pictures (sorry but built this before I found this great site) but the design is very simple. As an added bonus, we have not had any rabbits or moles in the garden. If you are in deer country, and you do not have a fence, these would become an "all you can eat buffet" so take precautions.
