Why Use Raised Beds in Your Garden? Raised beds are one of my favorite ways to garden for a wide variety of reasons, which you will learn as you read this book. For many people, raised beds to make their gardening more organized, neater, and easier to manage. If you have any mobility issues, it can reduce the impact on your back and the need to bend, meaning you can continue to enjoy gardening even if you cannot dig for hours and kneel on the floor tending your plants.

Set up raised beds properly requires absolutely no digging, which makes them ideal for efficient gardener after minimal maintenance work. They are also suitable for anyone with any disability, which makes digging difficult or painful. Anyone who works and tries to keep on top of their garden will be happy for anything that reduces the amount of work they need to do. I found that when I was working and looking after young children, the raised beds made the difference between having a vegetable plot and not being able to manage one.

In traditional soil planting your plants lean over on to the paths, which quickly become covered. You then end up having to pick your way carefully between your plants and will usually end up standing on your plants. If you have children visit your vegetable garden, then you will know just how hard it is to get them to stick to unclear paths.

I have lost many a row of seedlings to enthusiastic children wanting to help but not realizing where the paths are. In a raised bed garden, the paths are clearly defined, so there is no accidental squashing of seedlings It also means that if the weather is bad, you do not need to walk on muddy paths as you can easily create paved or barked paths between your beds.

Raised beds can be made out of pretty much anything you want, most of mine are made out of wood, but I am building one out of an old bath and have several made out of reclaimed bricks

You will learn everything you need to know about raised bed gardening, from locating your beds and planning through to building, planting, and maintenance so you can successfully build your own raised beds and enjoy an abundant supply of vegetables from them.
