How To Build A Raised Garden Bed

Flower beds do not have to be elaborate to produce fresh vegetables and beautiful flowers. With a DIY raised garden bed, you can customize your garden plan as you want.

Building a standard 3-ft x 5-ft garden bed with wood is typical; however, you also can use blocks, pavers, stone, or a pile of soil.

For this project you will need a raised bed garden plan, 2 x 4s, a 4 x 4 post, tape measure, pencil, square, drill with bits and screw-driving bits, a circular saw, work gloves, soil, landscape fabric, shovel, hoe, level, utility knife, sawhorses, soil, wheelbarrow, and a soaker hose. You’ll also need the flowers or vegetables of your choice.
