THE EARTH : Raised Bed Gardening
Gardening in raised beds instead of conventional rows is becoming more and more popular, and it is easy to see why – earlier crops in the spring and later crops in the fall, more produce in less space, less fertilizer needed, no costly machinery, better drainage, fewer weeds, elimination of soil problems, and better root crops. Gardeners who have tried raised beds discover that the soil is loose allowing air, moisture, warmth, nutriments and roots to penetrate more easily, and that this method of gardening helps correct the problems of poor, rocky or compacted soil and extends the shorter growing seasons.
