Raised Bed Gardening

Raised bed gardening is a form of gardening in which the soil is formed in wide beds, which can be of any length or shape. The soil is raised above the surrounding soil, sometimes enclosed by a frame generally made of wood, rock, or concrete blocks, and enriched with compost. The vegetable plants are spaced in geometric patterns, much closer for conventional gardening.

If you love to eat fresh, organic vegetables but don't like the idea of pulling weeds or running up a big water bill with a traditional row garden, then you're going to love square foot gardening. Square foot gardening is done in a 4 ft raised garden bed which consists of four side panels and no bottom. You will need to put down a weed barrier to create the bottom.
