Now, I'm no gardener, builder or top handyman. My vision wass a raised garden bed. Now I know it looks quite deep, but at least it's raised! All of the materials were free. Simple pine (not treated) pallets, with half the boards pulled apart and nailed on the opposite side to hold in the soil. The bearers then became exposed and I dug them into the ground. It feels really sturdy. I also used leftover boards on the top to form a top. Looks a bit funny I know, but it's rustic, like we wanted.

Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com Re: My new veggie patch 9Oct 05, 2014 8:28 am Here an update on our side area that we have transformed into a much more usable space. The veggie garden is planted, some Lilly Pilly's have been put in, a brand new clothes line and finally a proper pailing fence has just been built. All we wanted to do was make this area usable, but it seems to have upset the neighbors unfortunately. Not sure if they liked the corrugated iron backdrop to the veggie garden or the pailing fence...but it's done now I suppose. The veggies have been in for around a month and they are going off!

It's been our 1st veggie garden, so a steep learning curve is in progress. I planted ALL our lettuce and silver beet at once, so now we have heaps. We use the Kale and Silver beet in juices, so we've got heaps! Does anyone know if I can freeze the Kale, and maybe the lettuce, to keep for later?
