Building quick raised bed boxes for growing a small garden at home. This box is a 4’x4′ box that is 16″ deep. Our soil is so claylike it really isn’t great for growing vegetables in. I can’t wait to show you what the backyard will look like as we keep improving things!!
Here are the supplies we used to build these 4’x4′ boxes:
2x8x8 Doug Fir Lumber – https://thd.co/2zLqPnc
#8 3in exterior screws – https://thd.co/3bKMjh8
2x2x24 grade stakes – https://thd.co/2XahzkE (I will say that these may have been a bit of overkill and when we built the other boxes we went with a smaller stake 1x2x24 https://thd.co/36cGW9w)
Z-MAX 18-gauge galvanized hurricane tie – https://thd.co/2WHX5kd TP
20 gauge galvanized tie plate – https://thd.co/2yeITpj
We ordered everything online from The Home Depot and picked it up at the store.
After the boxes were built we got our dirt from a local supplier and supplemented it with compost.
The Wall-o-Waters we used in our larger garden bed can be ordered from amazon here: https://amzn.to/3dUVs8z these are great for extending shorter growing seasons and can be used year after year if properly cared for.
