How to make raised beds out of free wood pallets. IMPORTANT NOTE: If you aren't using a perforated liner, or something that allows water to drain, you'll need to, carefully, put holes in your plastic after stapling it to your pallets. Like our 5 on the Farm series? Subscribe to this station!

  • did you use the black plastic because it was cheaper?  or would landscape fabric work as well?

  • @tmoodyca Yes - we were on a pretty tight budget. Landscaping fabric would be preferable! You could also upcycle old window screens.

  • this is such a great idea....when i first swa it i thought jeez thats goona take a lot soil to fill them up....just love the idea you used to make it less deep..im in the middle of turning my garden in to a veggie patch and this is ideal for me...with a little help from my sons i can do this thanks and will subscribe

  • @scarlettskies100 Thanks so much. Hope it works as well for you as it does for us!

  • Man what is wrong with the comments on here.. foul language name calling.. Sheesh! Loved the idea.. this old 60 year old is thinking this is the ticket. Thanks!

  • Hey, just saw this and what a great idea. Wish I had room to do this. Maybe one day when I get some land. I'm 6'4" tall and I would LOVE to have something that high up and not stoop over! Thanks for the vid.

  • Love the idea of saving my back when weeding :) Thanks for the info.

  • brilliant! Been making bed by tearing them up but this is perfect-- easy gardening on my BACK! thanks... now subscribed!

  • BRILLIANT!!

  • @J3TPILOT1991 I know plenty of people that do smoke pot, but are far from consumed by it like @natharaja is. If you look at that person's channel you can see that they have barely any interest beyond that. On aside, I think Marijuana should be legalized not only for smoking but for the value that hemp has in industry.
