'U’ Shaped Raised Garden Bed - 12’ x 12’ x 12’ x 12” with Fencing

If you’re trying to grow the most vegetables possible in a small area, a “U-shape” garden makes sense. You’re maximizing your growing area, but because you can walk down the middle, all the veggies are within arm’s reach. At any point in the garden, the longest you’ll have to reach to pick your veggies is two-feet.

Included are 4 of the standard size Small Animal Barrier fences, which when joined together, create a rabbit-proof fence to protect your garden. The poles slide into the top of the stakes, and the mesh is affixed to the inside edge of the top timber.

This large 4’x12’x12’x12” garden bed comes with extra timbers and special joints to use as cross-bracing. You can see the timbers cross-ways on the top of the bed. These cross timbers prevent the sides from bowing out.

The 4’ x 12’ x 12’ x 12” “U-Shape” Composite Raised Garden Kit contains:

• 4 Small Animal Barrier Kits (creates the one fence in the picture)
• 38 Composite Timbers
• 16 two-packs Stacking Joints
• 6 Four-way Stacking Joints
• All necessary Screws

Features & Benefits:

• Rot-proof, durable, maintenance-free
• Simple installation
• Easy to set up in different configurations
• Includes all joints, screws, and composite timbers
• 5-Year Warranty Against Manufacturing Defects

The connecting joints are made of high impact durable ABS plastic resin (100% recycled), and the hollow timbers are made of a blend of wood fiber and UV-protected polypropylene (100% recycled).

They are attractive - with a wood-grain texture and color. Plus, unlike pressure-treated wood, there are no dangerous chemicals present in our timbers, so you can grow an organic garden.

The Raised Garden Bed Kit with Composite Timbers system lets you design and build a raised vegetable garden that is rugged, resistant to warping from winter frost, and won't rot from exposure to rain and moisture.

Each timber board is a standard 2” x 6" size (actual dimensions: 1.5" x 5.5") and 44.5" long which creates a 4 foot span from joint to joint. Color is brown. The timbers go a slightly lighter shade with age because of the wood fiber content. Because the timbers are hollow, they can crack if you hit them hard enough or lever against them too hard.

Garden assembly involves sliding the timber into the joint, and using the included zinc-plated steel screws to secure the timber in the joint. It is helpful to have a power drill to set the screws. The joint stakes are simply pressed into the ground, and the next level of joints slide into them from above.
