- extending the planting season significantly as the beds will warm faster and hold the warmth
- allowing better drainage
- as the gardener doesn’t walk on the garden bed, the soil doesn’t become compacted
- the soil will remain light and loose allowing it to hold more air helping the vegetable roots to grow with less effort
- ability to reduce the number of weeds
- if using close plant spacing your raised vegetable garden bed will create a micro-climate which will contain moisture and further discourage weeds.
Fill with compost, mulch, good soil and fertilzer mix.
If you are looking for a raised garden bed or planter box see Out of the Woods Woodshop here on Neighbourly.

My Mum lost her wallet yesterday (She thinks at Northwood Shopping Centre). She is a pensioner & it contained almost her entire pension payment. She is understandably distressed. It is a small, purple wallet. If anyone finds it, please can they drop it off to Mall Management, Countdown or the local Police station.
