We've been wanting to start a garden but haven't figured out where. One day while we were shopping at Menards we came up with the idea of building our own raised garden bed. We looked at lumber sizes to get some ideas. The next day I asked around for ideas on how to build it. I heard tons of great ideas. Slowly I settled on an idea. Last Sunday my buddy Adam and I drove out to Menards to get supplies. Did we have a detailed plan? No. Did that stop us? Heck no. Once we got there we made some quick sketches, picked some lumber(easier said than done), and headed home.
Once we got the goods back home, we started to get to work. I'll spare you the construction details but the dimensions are roughly 8ft x 2ft. Tonight it got finished up by adding the outer lip and putting in the inner liner. You can see Anna demonstrating its size. As Adam says, I'd be a great coffin maker for NBA players. ;)
Its going to be an awesome garden! Can't wait for the deliciousness!

Fun! This looks like a good idea for keeping rabbits from eating your veggies. I always have problems with that. Only the tomatoes and the raspberry bushes seem safe. :)
That is one hot veggie planter. And yes, it is creepy to see Anna laying in it. She's a weirdo.
