Garden Plans > 2013: Raised Beds

About this Garden Plan

Evolution of various raised beds/in-ground plots over the past 4 years. I raise most everything from seed; buying a couple of tomato varieties as plants from a local community farming group - should have them in May. This year we're trying tunnels to give our seeds/seedlings an easier start in our usually cold, wet Seattle springs. Using Gro-Therm (clear, ventilated plastic) over PVC pipes.
