bepreparedchannel.com This is an update video showing the Frame It All – Raised Garden Bed and sandbox kit. The kits I have are 4′x8′ and are stacked to 12″ deep. I show what my beds look like put together, partially together, and fully assembled but not filled. I also show you the parts of the kit unassembled, and the product box and explain some of the things to know about these kits. Also I show you a update on the hugelkultur bed that we are building. Also the latest update on one of the swales showing a quick trellis I put up for peas, and how that looks now that things are going into those beds.

These bed shapers from www.Kenncomfg.com form a tight, even bed (or beds) on every pass, are multi-functional, and have few wearable parts. They have many still in operation that were built 20+ years ago..which is why they call it the Superbedder.

Dr Ross Mars takes you through the process of assembling an ‘in ground’ version of a Wicking Raised Garden Bed, which you can purchase as a kit from Water Installations Pty Ltd & Greywater Reuse Systems in conjunction with the Greenlife Soil Co.

In this second video watch as we transport several 4′ x 10′ rectangular raised beds to our strawberry patch and put them in position. Once in position we add new soil, compost, and peatmoss. Then we begin to uproot our old strawberry plants and plant them in their new home.

I keep trying to upload this and it keeps failing to complete. When it finally works, it is 2 parts, how I built a couple raised garden beds at home. I used Windows Live Movie Maker. The original ‘recommended’ settings made the video giant, about 1 GB. I tried a smaller setting, and finally tried the “DVD” setting which made it a little over 300 MB, so I hope it will upload and be accepted.
