Hi,

I have a quandrary, currently I have a redundant shed, and am wondering if the planks from the sides would be suitable for making a raised bed or three?

Thanks

John

Our allotment neighbour did just that early this year when the storms blew his old shed over and he replaced it with a new one. The resulting raised beds seem to have been very successful, so good luck!

Thanks Monika, hopefully 4 planks high will be deep enough, should make 3 beds, 7' by 5', any suggestions on what to fill them with, thinking a rotation system would be best?
