Raised beds are a good gardening technique for areas that have poor drainage, rocks or plain old poor soil. A raised bed allows you to bring in the best soil. It never gets compacted and the extra height allows the garden bed to warm up more quickly in spring.
You can create raised beds simply by piling soil. However if you want something more permanent and sturdy, you’ll want to frame your raised beds. And if you have trouble bending, you can raise your raised bed to a convenient height. Here are several options for creating raised beds, from building it yourself to having it delivered to your yard.
