33 DIY Raised Garden Beds You Can Make Yourself

August 23, by Shellie Wilson. Leave a Comment

What is a Raised Garden Bed? It is a large planting container that sits above the ground and is filled with soil.

So why are raised garden beds so popular? The Urban Farmer!  Suddenly we are all faced with the shortage of supplies and it has made many of us go back to basics with growing and providing for our own basic food needs, instead of relying on big supermarket chains.  Suddenly we need to grow our own food.

Personally  I love that the soil is poured into the raised garden bed and not dug up. Me and Shovels or spades just don’t go together. Digging a garden bed out is far harder than one can imagine. Now, pouring the potting mix into a barrel or box appeals to my not so green thumb much more.  My homemade raised garden beds are also high enough so that I do not need to bend down due to back issues. So raised beds are great for the elderly and frail too, it allows them to keep gardening for many more years.

DIY Raised or potted garden beds are perfect for small areas, uneven gardens and those who may need to up and move. Raised garden beds can be placed on any surface including a deck, concrete and heavy clay soils or soils that are too acidic for growth.

Garden beds allow you to be organized and contain your way to grow vegetables.

Growing food in raised garden beds provides an extra layer of defence against pests and bugs too. You may have pets that like to dig and need to raise your garden bed away from little paws.

Of course there are literally 100’s of different ways to make your own garden beds and in this roundup, we have included 33 variations of making your own. Some of these tutorials use containers, recycled pallet wood, new wood, steel and you can even make them from fabric raised garden beds. 
If you make your own Raised garden bed please pop back and share a photo and tell us what you planted. I have started with some Rosemary and Basil in mine Because apparently they are hard to kill.
