Creating a Raised Garden
By: Anne Haynes
This weekend I went to home depot and purchased organic seeds. With the addition of my new roommate and her green thumb we are planning a veggie garden. Today at work I spoke with a couple of people and they all recommended using a raised garden instead of a tradition garden in the ground for a few reasons:
1. A raised garden reduces pest
2. Less water is needed to grow veggies
3. Easier on the back when weeding the garden
4. No need for a rototiller or treating the soil
During my research on raised gardens I ran across this video on Youtube. There's no need to build a two foot wood border around your raised garden, you can use cement blocks! This gardening stuff get's easier and easier the more I research!
