How to Build a Raised Garden Trug Planter

Huge raised garden bed design! These trug-shaped planters have plenty of room for growing vegetables, herbs, or flowers. No more bending over! You can build it yourself and be the envy of all your gardening neighbors. The downloadable woodworking plans read like a book. A craftsman will take you step by step through construction with easy to follow diagrams and photos at every step along the way. Plans include at least 50 pages of full color photos and DIY instructions.
The design is similar to the popular Veg-Trug planter, but this planter is even better with an X-shaped, sturdy frame. There are no nails. Everything is screwed and bolted construction. The instructional guides show you how to build each planter out of long-lasting treated lumber, but you can also make it out of standard lumber and paint it if you’d like. Nice!

Raised Bed Gardening

Raised bed gardening is an effective and efficient way to grow vegetables and herbs. The soil conditions can be controlled much easier, and you don’t have the compaction you find in the ground. This allows roots to grow quickly in a well-drained and loose environment. Elevated garden beds allow you to fertilize and remove weeds easier too. Those with little room for an actual garden will find raised beds a useful alternative. Those gardeners with disabilities can enjoy gardening with a raised garden too. Kneeling and bending over is eliminated, so your back will thank you!
