  1. Thank you for this wonderful video, Gary! Very timely. Unfortunately… Well, I should say it’s always a fortunate time to make a garden. (:

  2. I love your garden.
    Why use raised beds?
    The cost of the boxing must be expensive.

    I was living offgrid and self sufficient in Germany for 20+ years on 2×1100m² allotments, never used a raised be.

    I understand raised beds in places where pest invasion re phillipines destroys the roots of crops….or for the elderly.

    Anyway, great job.
