Difficulty: Easy

The frame is simple to assemble, but you’ll need an adult to run the power saws and fill the bed with soil.

If you have a kid who loves helping out in the garden but you're always brushing the dirt off their knees, a raised bed may be the perfect addition to your landscape. A simple frame of rot-resistant lumber holds the soil in place and brings it to a height that's easy for everyone to reach without climbing all over your precious plants.
