Hi my name is Kellie Schaffer, I am an AmeriCorps volunteer at FOODLINK
Inc., the food bank of Central and Western NY. We would like to build
raised beds on a parking lot for seniors to be able to garden on. What is a
good source for the how to's of building raised beds especially for
seniors. Does anyone have any advise they have learned from experience?
Thanks
Peace-kellie
