Raised garden beds are ideal for the family to grow your own vegetables or other plants and there are many benefits in using them including
- extending the planting season significantly as the beds will warm faster and hold the warmth
- allowing better drainage
- as the gardener doesn’t walk on the garden bed, the soil doesn’t become compacted
- the soil will remain light and loose allowing it to hold more air helping the vegetable roots to grow with less effort
- ability to reduce the number of weeds
- if using close plant spacing your raised vegetable garden bed will create a micro-climate which will contain moisture and further discourage weeds.
Fill with compost, mulch, good soil and fertilzer mix.
If you are looking for a raised garden bed or planter box see Out of the Woods Woodshop here on Neighbourly.

"Environment Canterbury has publicly notified the plan to carry out aquatic spraying between Tuesday, 14 August and Friday, 17 August. Fishing lakes at the reserve will be closed to public use from Thursday, 9 August when warning signs will be put up.
***Dogs should be kept out of the fishing lakes and the Otukaikino Stream.***
The fishing lakes will re-open on 23 August when the signs will be taken down."
