Building A Raised Bed Garden

The Family Plot gets a special guest appearance from producer Peter Richards. In this segment he will talk about how he built the Family Plot raised bed gardens using landscape timbers, a shovel, gravel and soil. Wooden raised beds can last several years with the proper setup and care. You don't need a whole crew or a mountain of muscle to build these for yourself if you have the time. Raised beds let you work your garden without bending over or having to deal with the native soil.
