You should be on HGTV. I'm sick of their makeover crap shows.

It should be pointed out that making raised beds isn't cheap.
Lumber for twelve 4'x8' boxes (2x12s) cost me $320 after tax. So far I'm only going up one level, I may go two levels to make it easier on myself (I'm 6'6" tall).
If you want to put two inches of gravel down in the bottom of each, that's roughly 3 tons of rock (at about $30/ton).
I'll be filling them with straw, yard waste, and manure from some of the farms in the city.
Patti's back yard probably cost $2000 in that configuration.

what kind of gravel do you put down before you put your garden on top? do you lay anything under the gravel 1st like landscaping paper? basically how do you prep your area for raised beds if you want to lay gravel?

Hi garden girl, any idea on how to keep my dog, chickens, wild birds and sqiurrels out of my garden beds while growing stuff in them?

Do you think a hoop house would work as a good squirrel barrier? I was thinking of attaching chicken wire to the top...

I'd like to try this this fall to extend the season. Is it really that easy to drill into the pvc pipe?
