Raised Beds for the D.I.Y Challenged.
I came to the sad realisation that my raised beds had had their day. Now don't get me wrong, I can do BASIC D.I.Y but the reason the raised beds haven't lasted is my skills(or lack thereof) and poor materials.
So, having given myself heart failure at the cost of timber I contacted a local pallet company in the hope he had a few spare that I could buy cheaply and make the new raised beds. Anyway the upshot of that conversation was that although he had some, he also has what are called pallet collars. For those of you looking for a cheap way of having raised beds these are perfect.

They're much cheaper than buying timber and are ready to go!
