Also, if you go into the archives of this listserv and search the raised bed,

the information that you need. Just cut and paste this link into your browser

 Hi,

 I am an Americorp VISTA with Community Action Coalition Garden Program in 
Madison,WI. One of the projects I am working on is making community gardens 
more accessible for people with physical limitations. I have researched 
different designs and materials to use but haven't been able to find any real 
specific recipes/blueprints for constructing them. This year is the first 
year of a 3 year project so I was thinking of doing a layering type of system 
and adding more wood to increase height in the upcoming years (depending on 
needs of individuals).

 It will be my first "real" carpentry type project so I'll need all the help 
I can get.If anyone out there could point me in the right direction I would 
greatly appreciate it.

 Thanks,

 Beth
