Re: building raised beds & filling them

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

I too found free lumber for my raised beds. the beds are constructed out of
6" x 6" 4 1/2 foot pieces spiked together in a square, like a log house. I
am amazed at the ingenuity people on this list have shown for recycling
usable materials!

Have a great day,
bill missen.
