Garden Bench
Scratch your building and gardening itch with one plan. This project is simple enough to build multiple sizes in just one day. The corner trim detail serves to cover the sidepiece end grain and reinforce the corners. Landscape fabric stapled to the bottom keeps your potting mix in place while allowing adequate drainage for your plantings.
Perfect for a patio or deck, you can tend a little patch of vegetables, herbs or flowers just outside your door. Place them around your home to use as landscape beds. The concept details are the same: so you can easily customize just by changing the measurements of your sidepieces.
Note: 下载澳门永利app官网® brand products are treated with a micronized copper wood preservative and are approved for use in applications such as a raised vegetable bed. Learn more here.
