Cheap and easy raised beds

Hi there,

"Cheap & easy raised garden beds"
Each bed is made with six 6 foot lengths of 1"x6", one 4 foot length of 2"x4" and 32 deck screws. Two of the boards are cut in half and the 2x4 is cut into four. You can probably figure out the rest from this picture. I filled each with 3 bags of last years leaves, about 8 cubic feet of compost, 2 cubic feet of peat moss and one of manure, in that order. Watered well and left to settle for a couple of days before planting.
