A raised garden bed is a type of garden bed that is created on a raised platform or structure. It is a great way to easily increase garden space and offers many advantages over traditional garden beds.
A raised bed provides a higher soil temperature, which is very beneficial to most plants. It can allow for a longer growing season, which gives plants a faster start and promotes growth in the cooler months. A higher soil also provides better drainage, which is beneficial for plants that cannot tolerate overly saturated roots. Raised beds also have the advantage of reducing the need to bend over when gardening, which is especially beneficial for people with back problems or physical limitations.
