With all the beautiful weather we've been having in Ohio this weekend, I've
been doing a lot of work preparing some new garden beds. Anyone have any
ideas for some reasonably priced ways of constructing raised beds? I don't
want to use pressure treated wood, as I've heard that this can lead to
arsenic
being leached into the soil and thus into the veggies.

I think some landscape timber is treated with chemicals and some is treated
with salt water.
Try the salt water.
