Most gardeners are missing the boat. Consider using discarded upright Freezers or refrigerators for a raised bed. They are just the right size for weeding and harvesting at waist height, making them ideal for wheelchair access or seniors, or those with back problems. One or a dozen, it 's up to you. It took me two weeks on Craigslist to get an even dozen boxes, and that was being picky. No stainless steel, or black refrigerators, no side-by-sides, only white boxes. They come insulated, and the type of soil they have is up to you. No more gophers, moles, rabbits, either! Just remove and discard the doors and shelves, fill and plant. Water with a garden hose, or plumb them with an irrigation system from below. Ideal for an apartment with a small patio, or a big yard. No more bending to weed! Best of all, they're free, and you keep them out of the landfill! Details to your questions if you like. Upcycle those landfill white elephants!
@@WileysMusicAndHomesteading couldn't tell from video, I'm guess the metal keeps the chemical from the pressure treated away from vegetation. Thanks for the reply.

What type of lumber? Very nice job.
Hey brother, I just used pressure treated pine from Lowes. That's where I got all the materials.
