What is the best way to build a raised garden without using wood?
+4
I have a lot of back issues but I sonlove working in the garden that my husband built me with wood but in 3 years it rotted. This year he built me outdoor shelving and we planted in pots but they didn’t do well either.
I miss my garden does anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you,
Athena

Trex, a non-wood deck product would most likely work if you needed a garden box that's tall. I believe it's made of vinyl. My raised beds are made of stacked concrete blocks, three layers tall. -

My friend gardens in metal horse troughs and they have lasted for years. Just drill drainage holes.
