I love raised beds.
Especially for tending vegetables or cut flowers, raised beds are a smart and easy way to skip the effort of tilling soil, while also defining the size of your garden, and ensuring you have high-quality soil right from the start.
You can build your own raised beds, (we have lots of good ideas all right here), or you can simply buy a raised bed kit, and put it together! We love an easy DIY. We've put together our list of the best raised beds you can buy—most of which are being used by Country Living Editors in our own back yards. Read on to find the ones we love, and why.
