We Finished 1!

I am so happy to say that my husband and I finally finished a garden bed.

We re-purposed old privacy fencing to make it & it actually looks pretty awesome.

Unfortunately we learned that it will take 3-4 bags of fertilizer/soil bags to fill them so we decided 1 bag per box, and the rest just cheap soil.

We cannot afford $40 per planter box ;)

 

We made the box 6ft long and 3 ft wide. You could say it will hold a decent amount of veggies. In the bottom we laid some plastic to help with weed control, then we laid on the soil.

 

We currently have a variety of fall plants and some herbs in seed pods waiting to be spriglets so that they can be planted. I am so excited as this will be the beginning of our first garden
