- For
- Home gardeners planning one or more raised beds
- Worth noticing
- The build guide specifies that end boards fit between the long walls, making them three inches shorter than the bed’s outside width.
Field notes
The build instructions give practical assembly details: pre-drill near board ends, add mid-wall posts on walls over six feet, and centre board joints on a post. They also describe stapling half-inch hardware cloth across the bed bottom and six inches up the walls where gophers or voles are a concern. The planner includes crop-spacing fields based on one-foot squares, while the site points readers to university extension and Master Gardener references.
