Barbara and Everyone,

Diane Relf's excellent resource "Gardening in Raised Beds and Containers for
Older Gardeners and Individuals with Physical Disabilities" is available
online at  <http://www.hort.vt.edu/human/pub426020d.html>

 It is pretty well the definitve  resource  when you are looking for
heights, widths etc of planters.

I'm looking for specifications for a raised bed that will accommodate a
person in a wheelchair.  Do any of you know of such?? I work with students
at San Jose State U in San Jose, California.  Sometimes I have students who
have various physical disabilities such as blindness or other physical
constraints.  Some are wheelchair bound.  I know that there are different
chairs, heights and so on but someone must know something about raised beds
that fit for many.  I cannot find anything.  Can anyone help??
Thanks,
Barbara
