Raised Beds

You might already have a good idea where your raised planter is going to be located, but if not, consider these factors before you get started: It’s best to make sure the area is clean and tidy before you start anything else. You’re going to need suitable space in which to build you planter. Measuring and cutting the large pieces of wood can take up a reasonable amount of space so make sure you have plenty.

If you’re using a raised bed, you may also want to consider adding compost or other organic matter to improve the soil quality. Weed protection was used to prevent weeds from growing up into the planter and also out the side from underneath. Protecting your woodWhen choosing plants for your raised flower bed, consider factors such as the amount of sunlight the bed receives, the soil quality, and the size and shape of the bed.
