raised beds are imperative if you live on a slope like me, and don’t necessarily want to eat the soil, due to the location of your land being so close to a landfill. i came here to comment on how much i like this lily post, but hey, please don’t judge all raised beds in their entirety, that is not fair. and as for you! paul stamets said never to eat mushrooms grown on your island! a simple reason raised beds in your neck of the woods wouldn’t be such a bad idea either? not that you’re growing mushroom,s but all the same, fall-out from pulp mills lingers in that there soil.

brion, uh, what I meant was that gardeners (usually in urban settings) are better off just improving the soil in a vegetable patch with some homemade compost, bagged composted steer or chicken manure to add volume to the soil. You can have ‘raised’ beds just without the expense of corrals made of pressure treated wood. And they are easier to maintain.

soil amendments? did I just read soil amendments?…I know that’s just a code word for a very controversial topic. Am I right? why must you tease your readership so? this is not a rant.

Miss Elizabeth you are one funny lady. Yeah, don’t get me started on raised beds, waste of wood, time and energy. Spend the money on soil amendments. Hmmm, I see a post (rant) in the making.

I just RSS feeded your blogself so now I can be the FIRST TO KNOW, an early adopter, if you will. What does that mean, anyway, if you will? What about if you won’t? Anyone ever say that? And let’s talk about raised beds, shall we? Rant.

I’m speechless; however, if you say that you also have lily of the valley in that garden of yours, I say no need to bother coming with a cup to borrow sugar. Bring those and stay for dinner!
