How to Build Cheap, DIY Raised Garden Beds In Under 30 Minutes

October 18, 2016 by Weekend Gardener

Building a raised bed isn’t as hard as it seems. I went on a mission to build the simplest and cheapest raised garden beds possible.

It took me about 15 minutes to build, and cost about $40 to make. Of course, you could save more if you used salvaged materials, but I wanted this to be applicable to people that don’t have anything lying around the house.

Learning how to build a raised garden bed doesn’t have to be difficult, and you don’t have to buy expensive $200 kits or beds from a company if you don’t want to…just follow this guide!

Materials:
→ Planter wall blocks (found at Home Depot)
→ 6 cu ft. soil
→ (2) 2′ 2×6′ boards
→ (2) 6′ 2×6′ boards
→Twine
→ 1″ nails
→ Seeds!
