Vegetable Garden, Hascombe, Godalming, Surrey - The Project
We were asked to make raised vegetable boxes. These were made out of railway sleepers and were then filled with new top soil and compost.
Raised beds are a great way of growing a wide selection of plants , and are especially popular for growing vegetables and fruits . They are a great way of improving water drainage and can be used to introduce a completely different garden soil type to your garden . Raised beds are also a useful solution to garden for those who have restricted mobility , as they reduce the need to bend.
You can read more about the benefits of raised beds on the RHS website.
