6 Great Benefits of Raised Garden Beds


1. Much longer growing season because of the warmer soil earlier in the season. 

2. Less weeds.  Weed barrier fabric can be installed under the garden box.  Use weed free soil in the box as well.

3. No soil compaction from foot traffic, resulting in better drainage.

4. Easier to reach the vegetables.  No more getting down on the ground!

5. More growing space.

6. They look great in the yard!

Pleasant Grove Residence

This landscape is a perfect example of a "Staycation" yard. There is no need to leave the comfort of your home for a summer vacation. Complete with a trampoline, hot tub, fire pit, and swimming pool, who would want to leave?
The rock steps lead up to the trampoline pit. A flowing sidewalk goes around the entire back yard, and leads to the fire pit, grow boxes, hot tub, and swimming pool.

Timber grow boxes are surrounded by black cobble with weed fabric underneath to prevent weeds. Rock steps lead up from the sidewalk to a flagstone path and onto the fire pit.
