This is a summary slideshow showing the various stages of building my raised bed garden out of cedar fence posts and 2×4′s screwed together to form a 4×4 used as support posts. I’m pleased with the overall result however i forgot to take drainage into account. If i had to do this again i would have done this out of cinder blocks. First i would level the ground and place flat concrete tiles 16″x16″x4″ (or poured a foundation) leaving about 3″ or 4″ between them to fill with rocks for drainage. Then I’d mortar the cinder blocks together probably going 3 levels high. I’d then fill the first 4-8″ of the bed with more rocks for drainage. Lay a screen of some sort on top of the rocks then add your soil. You could stocco, or something similar, the side walls if you wanted and lay down blocks on the tope level to create a ledge to sit on. I haven’t done any of this yet so it’s all “in Theory” but i think it create a longer lasting and stronger raised bed without increasing the cost too much if any.
