Do you want to grow your own vegetables, but you don’t have a place for a garden? This tiered garden bed is for you! You can build it in a weekend and be on your way to growing your own vegetables with the plans and video tutorial.

Researching Before I started this project, I really didn’t know a lot about gardening or raised garden beds. I did what I always do before I start building something, explore, ask questions, and get inspired.

2. Pre-drill all the holes I pre-drilled the holes because I was dealing with really old lumber and it is really hard and dry. Pre-drilling reduces the risk of having the wood split.
