    I have eight raised beds which is plenty! Did four at a time. Hardest thing was finding good dirt to put in them. The first four we bought wonderful mushroom compost but before we got the second set of four finished the following year the mushroom farm went out of business. After several failed attempts at reasonable dirt we took the good dirt out of the beds, put the not so good dirt on the bottom and topped the beds off with the good dirt. ALOT of work! Now I amend them with compost that I make myself in a tumbler, thus what is behind the "Grow" sign! I have five different signs that I change out depending on the season and will be painting more. They are made from wood from a horse barn that we tore down years ago. Always reusing! Even the fence that the sign is on was out old dock material.

    Julee, do you use rebar or some kind of support in the corners?
