Single Bed Base to Veggie Patch

deise.girl · **Posted: 28-06-2010 , 12:14 PM** #1

We had an old bed base that we stripped the material off and turned upside down, we then filled it with soil and its the perfect shape for a little vegetable patch in our small garden!! Any tips on growing vegetables would help but its a great past time for me and my little girl to do together ;-)

That is a fantastic idea well done!!! Have a look at GIY Ireland fantastic website and social network for gardeners.
Best of luck!!!
