hi, we recently made some raised veg beds for our allotment, from wooden pallets. They are two "planks" high, and once the pallets had been broken down (the hardest bit), the beds were straightforward enough to make.
I say this from the authority of the kitchen window, where I observed hubby grafting away!
We got ours from a local paint supplier - I'd say any place which is fairly large and gets heavy deliveries would be worth approaching. This place had hundreds. We got the heaviest-duty ones that they had - some would be a bit flimsy for what you need. The ones we got were not treated, either.
Best of luck with it anyway.
