Redwood Complete Raised Garden Bed Kit - 6' x 12' x 20"

Made with solid Redwood, the 6'x12'x20" garden provides approximately 50 square feet of planting space, and is perfect for a family of four.

If you want to grow your own organic vegetables, but you’re busy and don’t have the patience to deal with pests eating your plants or don’t have the time to water it every day, this complete system may be perfect for you. The innovative design removes many of the irritating problems gardening can have.

Features & Benefits:

• Gopher-proof - the floor of the beds is covered with galvanized wire mesh.
• Rabbit-proof – fence sections are 3’ high and backed with black plastic mesh. The Gate is black plastic mesh over wire grid for strength.
• Automatic irrigation system – Waters your garden for you
• Tall beds – 20” tall beds mean you don’t have to bend down as far, and the soil will retain more moisture than shorter beds. Plus, you can grow larger plants with deeper roots.
• Heart grade redwood — a high quality lumber that is ideal for damp environments.
• Stained outside, natural inside – The redwood is stained on the outside, and left natural on the inside of the bed. This allows you to have an organic garden.
• Metal brackets – designed specifically for these beds, metal brackets help control the expansion and contraction of the wood, and make assembly easy.
• Built-in Trellis – peas or flowers can climb the sturdy 5’8" tall trellis at the end of the bed.

Irrigation system:

Located at the back corner of the garden, an automatic soaker hose irrigation system takes even the simplest of duties out of your hands. A garden hose can be connected to the unit, or the hose adaptor can be removed so the irrigation unit can be tied into your existing irrigation system with piping. We use a digital battery operated controller, manufactured by DIG Corporation, that is very easy to use. You'll never need to worry about watering your garden - it takes care of itself. We also include a coil hose and hose holder along with a vegetable sprayer. You can manually spray your plants if you choose to or use the hose to wash your hands.

Built-in Trellis:

These beds come with a 5'8"’ high trellis at the end of the bed. As well, the mesh that is affixed to the side fencing panels is also good for trellising. You'll increase your growing space by allowing plants to grow vertically. Peas, green beans, cucumbers, and tomatoes grow beautifully with the aid of the trellis.

Garden Brackets:

The attractive, sturdy brackets are designed to fit the standard 2" thick redwood lumber boards. The corner brackets make it easy to put together sturdy, straight beds. Center brackets are used for placing two beds head to head. The brackets are powder coated steel. The tall brackets are 16 gauge and the shorter brackets are 18 gauge.

Assembly:

You can set them up yourself, or have a local handy person follow the instructions and set it up for you. Assembly can take 2-4 hours, and adding the dirt (2.9 cubic yards) can take an additional few hours. Note that no digging is required – the entire structure sits on your lawn.

All of our fencing sections are approximately 3' high and are backed with black plastic mesh. We use an air compressor staple gun and hundreds of tiny staples to securely fasten the mesh to the lumber. When the fencing is delivered, the mesh is already affixed. So, it takes only minutes to attach the fencing sections to the garden beds. The mesh will keep out dogs and rabbits. Up close, it looks attractive, but from a distance you can't even see it. Then add the decorative post caps and the garden fencing is complete.
