Hi friends! It's almost that time of year again! Yay! Spring is right around the corner. Thank goodness for that! (and by the way, don't forget to spring forward with your alarm clock this weekend on 3/11/18 for daylight savings time.) Now is the perfect time to start planning your garden. Have you ever thought about using raised garden beds in your garden?
Whether you already have them or have never heard of them before, raised garden beds have many benefits. They help improved drainage, they don't require much digging, they’re easy to fill with good soil, they help protect your plants from being eaten by wildlife, and they grow much fewer weeds then a regular garden. But not only that, raised garden beds can look great, and you can build them yourself.
With just a few supplies, a little bit of know-how, and an afternoon or two, you can have your own raised garden bed in your backyard. Check out these great ideas for DIY raised garden beds and maybe you will be convinced to make one for your own backyard.
