Select A Garden Bed
Functionality, design and stylish appeal are to be discovered with our selection of garden beds.
We always suggest you start with around ten square metres and discover what can be grown in that area. Usually, most of the veggies one person needs can be grown in this space. What you’ll find, is your harvest will vary with the seasons and so what you need from your fruit and veg shop will vary accordingly.
All prices are ex-factory, include GST and are assembled ready to be placed within the garden. Installation and soil is an additional outlay. You can establish the total outlay for your area, choice of bed and the number of beds on this link here.

In-Ground Raised Garden Bed
This is the most economical way to start. There is no structure to hold the garden, just some preparation work on the soil below and we place a shaped mound of 25 to 30 centimeters of our super soil on the prepared area. It’s the cheapest method but has some disadvantages with respect to the soil mound not being held in place. As a low budget way to get started, it may be the way to go?

The major disadvantage of this garden is the need to bend down to work and to harvest your food. Also, some birds tend to scatter the garden around. But if getting started on a budget is what you need, then this is the way to go.
