I like the idea of the 4x4 in the corners, but I think I'm going with edge screwed unless things look shaky. <BR/><BR/>You have more nerve than I do... I like the idea of moving to the country, but I'm not sure I could handle it. Although I would love some goats, chickens and rabbits!<BR/><BR/>I grew up in suburbia and have lived in the city for the last 17 Crunchy Chickenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10612320939936593420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1542806651392353413.post-28920751443038036122007-03-11T07:03:00.000-07:002007-03-11T07:03:00.000-07:00Hello CCMy raised beds are fairly simple, but Caro...Hello CC<BR/><BR/>My raised beds are fairly simple, but Carol at May Dreams Gardens puts chunks of 4x4 in the inside corners of hers, and then screws the outside wood to them. (Mine are edge screwed; they've been fine for 3 years so far. I also have 2x2s standing up in some corners as hose guards.) So go look at http://www.maydreamsgardens.blogspot.com/<BR/>for raised bed tips. <BR/><BR/>I Elhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14878724196098024140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1542806651392353413.post-62443880052800803702007-03-09T10:10:00.000-08:002007-03-09T10:10:00.000-08:00Eva -- thanks for visiting!

I think the soil in our yard is healthy but I'm concerned about what I don't see.<BR/><BR/>I know our neighbors are quite liberal with the insecticides and who knows what the previous owners put on the lawn or pressure washed off the fences.<BR/><BR/>That's why I'm doing raised beds for the main garden. I'll write more about it soon as I just picked up the lumber today.Crunchy Chickenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10612320939936593420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1542806651392353413.post-42384849636923972502007-03-09T09:58:00.000-08:002007-03-09T09:58:00.000-08:00Hi There!I just stumbled across your blog... and I...Hi There!<BR/>I just stumbled across your blog... and I love it! We too are trying to start a garden, and are located in S. Seattle. It will be my first, and I'm worried about the soil. I look forward to reading more of your posts!Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17268234134454049531noreply@blogger.com
