I've had a raised bed for years but whoever initially put it in seems to have just throw regular dirt into them, so I've had to amend them a lot over the years. As the dirt got better, the neighbors tree got bigger so now I struggle with less than adequate sunshine to grow a lot of the crops I used to love. Fortunately perennials thrive there so it's become my herb garden and I love it just as much. I also love seeing what others to do sustain growing their own...whatever; so thank you for sharing. Beautiful garden...and even though there is a slight pang of jealousy...I'm OK with six more weeks of recuperation before trying to kill myself with yard work! Absolutely lovely!

Just because they're vegetables doesn't mean they shouldn't be pretty! I love how you put down river rocks around your raised beds.

I have made some raised beds from recycled pallets and some with fencing wood like yours. At first I thought the pallet bed was kind of ghetto but it turned out kind of rustic! It works fine as a bed for my bunching onions. Any way, great little blog site you have! I just discovered it and like it a lot! Want to share my favorite Asian seed catalog with you. You may already know them Kitazawa? Good looking garden! I have made some raised beds from recycled pallets and some with fencing wood like yours.

We got them at the same place you did (Home Depot) but ours were a different board. The ones we used are most likely much thinner than the boards you bought (at least that is our best guess.) The redwood we bought was about a 1/2" thick, pre-groved fencing panel. Hopefully we didn't make a mistake by going so thin, but we can always replace and rebuild if necessary. $50-60 per board does sound high, but there are many variable that go into the pricing of lumber.

Can you please share with us where you purchased your redwood? Our three boxes from last summer cost us about $500 ($50-$60 per board, if I remember correctly). Did Home Depot rip us off?!?!?!?! [K] Looks great!
