- Tape measure
- Circular saw
- Drill
- Screws
- Hammer
Instructions
1. Measure and cut the corrugated metal sheets to the desired size. The sheets should be at least 2 feet long and 1 foot wide.
2. Dig holes for the wood posts. The holes should be at least 2 feet deep and 1 foot wide.
3. Set the wood posts in the holes and concrete them in place.
4. Attach the corrugated metal sheets to the wood posts with screws.
5. Use a hammer to pound the rebar stakes into the ground around the perimeter of the raised garden beds. This will help to secure the beds in place.
Tips
- When cutting the corrugated metal sheets, be sure to wear safety glasses and gloves.
- If you are using treated lumber for the wood posts, be sure to wear gloves and a dust mask when cutting and drilling the wood.
- You can also use concrete blocks instead of wood posts to build your raised garden beds.
- If you want to add extra drainage to your raised garden beds, you can line the bottom of the beds with gravel or rocks.
- You can also add a layer of mulch to the tops of your raised garden beds to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
