Re: Bed Construction

Bettye, The ideal width for a raised bed is four feet. 4X8 is the practical
size as the lumber is available in certain lengths and should be taken into
consideration. We just finished our sixth bed of redwood "ouch", the price,
all lined with hardware cloth to keep the gophers out. Our garden is located
between orchards and is heaven to a gopher. The beds are easy to walk around
and between and look really cool too. This is going to be the vegetable area
of a totally raised bed garden designed in the shape of a knot garden. And
when we can afford it a raised pond in the center with a tea house for a bit
of shade. It's a wonderful dream but takes a long time to achieve.
