Currently Playing: The Secret to Helping Seeds Germinate🌿

Raised beds are a great investment for the garden especially if your soil is poor. In this video I show you how to get the very best from them including what to construct them from, what to fill them with and what to plant in them. In our new garden, I’m using them to grow seed potatoes and salad crops. I show you just how much you can plant even in a limited space. Then watch the space come together as the paths between the beds are upgraded with membrane and a woodchip finish, creating a tidy, low-maintenance garden that looks as good as it performs. Whether you're new to gardening or looking to improve your results, my guide will help you make the most of your raised beds all year round.
