Give the growing space room to work
A low cedar frame for a four-by-eight-foot growing area. I would mark the outline on the ground before bringing in the soil. Leave the path you will use for watering, tending, and carrying a harvest back to the house.
Cedar that can become part of the garden
The untreated cedar boards are 3/4 inch thick, with dovetail joints and routed corner posts. The frame can weather to a silver-gray finish. Plan the bed as part of the garden layout rather than treating the filled structure as something to move between seasons.
Living with it in the garden
Choose the planting arrangement around the usable space.
Keep a clear route for watering and tending.
