Enjoy Gardening More with Raised Beds
 
There are so many advantages to growing in raised beds we really should consider them for any garden.  Whether you are beginning a new garden or wish to improve an established garden, raised beds will make your garden more productive, more convenient, and are less work in the long run (no tilling, ever!). Raised beds do very well in the hilly, rocky, weedy, cool, wet, northern New England conditions.  Let's look at the benefits and explore a couple ways to build raised beds.
 
While building raised beds will require some extra effort in the beginning, they will save you labor later plus all the benefits are well worth the effort.  In case you need convincing, here is a summary of the specific benefits:
 
  • Deeper soil for better root growth   (bigger, healthier plants)
  • Better drainage in wet, clayey soils
  • Faster soil warming in the spring
  • Efficient use of your planting space   (grow more in limited spaces)
  • Reduced soil erosion on slopes
  • Improved soil structure and aeration
  • No need to ever rototill, dig, or plow the garden   (earthworms do that work)
  • Creates an attractive garden appearance
  • High raised beds are more accessible  (less bending)
 
Building raised beds is work, but there are several ways that you can choose from to suit your preferences and circumstances.
