DIY Raised Garden Beds
1.
Welcome to the world of gardening! Today, we'll show you how to create your own raised garden beds. Let's get started!
2.
First, choose a sunny spot in your yard. Raised beds need at least 6 hours of sunlight per day.
3.
Next, gather your materials. You'll need untreated wood, a saw, screws, and a drill.
4.
Measure and cut your wood to the desired size. A standard size for raised beds is 4 feet by 8 feet.
5.
Assemble the bed by screwing the pieces together. Make sure the corners are sturdy.
6.
Place the bed in your chosen spot and level it using a level tool.

Now it's time to fill the bed with soil. Use a mix of topsoil, compost, and peat moss for a nutrient-rich mix.

Add a layer of mulch on top to retain moisture and prevent weeds.

You're almost done! Plant your desired vegetables, herbs, or flowers in the bed.
