Ah! I just woke up, made a nice warm cup of coffee, it's sunny outside and I'm sitting on my balcony and there's a new video of my favourite Gardening RUclips channel. Life is good...🤍 Have a great weekend everyone! Love from Germany.
You too!!
Greetings from NJ! No sun here today, but my plants are happy for the much needed rain🌧
Hello from Canada. I’m looking forward to a great day in the garden.
me too
Hi from the San Francisco Bay Area in California! Enjoy your weekend. :)
What a gorgeous berry patch! Your and Aaron’s eye for structure in a garden is amazing. It’s just beautiful. Garden magazines should be knocking on your door frequently! Please write a book, publish a coffee table book or something! All people would delight in your gardens beauty. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. I can’t wait to see Benjamin and Samantha Grace sneaking out to the berry patch to eat the mornings fresh berries. God bless. 👏🏻💕👏🏻
I totally agree with you
Their channel is their book.
When would they fit in writing a book?!
Aaron has very little say... she cuts him off any time he has a different opinion than hers. It’s only gotten worse too. I do enjoy many things about her channel but she is no Velvet and Linen.
@@D-bow288 she's been gardening a LOT longer than him. Keep that in mind.
Benjamin’s little head between you and Aaron has you drove away on the gator with the soil, so cute.
Laura put those raised raspberry beds together like a CHAMP...soil, drip tubing, fertilizer, and plants. Awesome job.
Good job Laura
The huge smile on your face as you're watering the newly planted raspberries says it all😃 There's something very satisfying about growing your own food!!
I'd call that "romancing the ordinary" for raspberry beds! 👌
I concur❣️
yeah. but the soil was basic and fertilizer was basic. they just paid someone. for trellis thats it.
When you go to do your strawberry bed, also put in asparagus, they work well together as the asparagus goes first then Peter out as the strawberries take off, 2 perennial crops in the space of 1. 😊
She never did get to the harvesting stage with asparagus. Great idea. 👍
They can add and mushrooms with strawberries. Maybe Wine Cap Mushrooms (King Stropharia)

Happy Saturday morning everyone!!! Have my coffee!☕️☕️
Happy Saturday morning!!
We inherited a few raspberry "volunteers" in our backyard from a berry patch that the previous owners had tried to eliminate after they grew tired of doing raspberry jam. Three errant volunteers rapidly grew into parallel 20ft hedge. Thank God they are thornless! The kids crawl between the rows and call it the Unicorn Forest, eating their way from the inside out! Summer memories!
Those raised beds are beautiful! Even before you put the raspberries in them. I'm inspired!
Good question - unfortunately I doubt you’ll get an answer from her. I don’t see her responding to a lot of comments on her channel. Not sure why, too busy I guess. 😊
@@mbbuckeyes8386 They actually respond to questions weekly on their Garden Answer Highlights channel. They do a weekly recap and answer questions from the previous week's videos.
You could call it the: "Blessed/Sweet Blessings" Garden. Because ANYTHING you grow for yourself OR to give away is a Blessing! Love ALL your videos! You and your family is our SWEET BLESSING! 💜
Amen to that. They are a HUGE blessing and we are all blessed to absorb all their knowledge. I know that God is watching this beautiful family and has his big loving arms around them.

Those may be the most beautiful Raspberry beds I have ever seen! Your whole garden space is amazing! Good for you guys...you should be so proud of all you are doing to keep your family self sustained while also growing enough to share with family and friends to enjoy as well! Bravo!💛
Hello dear friend how are you doing, you can give me your WhatsApp number so that we can talk more better than here
Laura’s so called “small projects” are huge projects on my scale of gardening😀! How beautiful to have such “manicured” raised beds . Thanks Laura, Aaron and Benjamin for sharing your activities ! 🇨🇦
You’re right. Railroad ties were “a thing” in the 70’s. I remember we had them in our yard in Alabama as a child as well
Here in British Columbia also.
It was the precursor to pressure-treated wood.
Good morning everyone ☕ waiting for this place to bloom up🌼⚘🌹🌻🌷🍁🌺🌾🍓🍒🍋
Laura, with you all things are possible.
She has a bonafide 'Midas touch' with all her plants
@@doeroftheword262 Love, love, love her view on life, her laugh + her (seemingly) natural organization. She's a wizard ✨ all right!
No, an unlimited budget makes "all things possible".
@@jsokla7515 well, that does cross my mind in the garden, but in the 'growing garden' I think Laura's the "Proven" in Proven Winners. Maybe she's a test gardener for them?
I believe that with God, all things are possible. Matthew said it best.
Truly love watching you all. All the knowledge I've gained has now made me the neighborhood horticulturist and all my neighbors come to ask me questions! 🤣 I've told every one of them all I do is watch Laura and Aaron from Garden Answer. 😁
Lol, same for me. All my friends, family and even co-workers come to me for gardening advice now. I always give credit to GA.
Sameeeee! Lol

Benjamin is learning so much from what he sees going on around him with all the workmen etc, I love how children’s minds work based on what they see including yourselves......so cute x
Been waiting for this video because I bought a golden raspberry plant, just one so I can see how it goes. I’m putting mine in a container because of the suckers.
I’m so looking forward to seeing how yours grow. I
Hello dear you can give me your WhatsApp number so that we can talk more better than here
Wow Laura, everything is coming together so nicely! It’s amazing to see how far things have come from the old tumbleweed filled pasture it once was! Bravo!! 👏🏻
These are beautiful! I just wanted to comment that after 3 years of watching you and other gardners on here I officially started a gardening business where I get to introduce plants and flowers to previously unmade and under utilized garden beds. I’ve already booked 10 jobs one being a huge $$ job and I take so much inspiration from you without you this wouldn’t have been possible. Thank you for my inspiration so I can support my family while still having an active role in my kids life
Fantastic, keep going
Laura, one of the things I appreciate most about your videos is how much information you give us on the different plants you are putting in your garden. Love seeing Benjamin working with you guys, can’t wait to see Samantha Grace there too.
Hello my beautiful friend how are you doing, you can give me your WhatsApp number so that we can talk more better than here.
Your gonna have some happy plants. Love the look of those beds. Wow. With your wind you will find the plants pushing thicker canes to stand up to it. Love my golden berries here, so do the grands who clear mine out on a regular basis. Thanks for posting.
Hello dear friend how are you doing, you can give me your WhatsApp number so that we can talk more better than here
Benjamin is so precious and whenever he just spontaneously says "I love you momma" my heart melts for you. God bless.
There is unitarian and then there's Laura's way. I love how you put style in the planning from hard scape to color verification in the flower beds. Such a joy to see gardening through the eyes of Aaron in prep and Laura in visionary planting. Love seeing this property change into a dream garden for your family.
My wife loves watching you you and the impatient gardener have become a nightly routine on our tv I love watching not only her plants but how much she has grown you have no idea of the demons she has had to fight with in her life you both have given her a gift I couldn’t of given and you have no idea how much it is appreciated and I want to say thank you so much for all the knowledge you given her she now has something awesome and productive to do with herself everyday because of you guys thank you
I love watching Benjamin's face as he looks at things that are being built and even removed. The things he is learning is so awesome as your property emerges into new aspects of your dreams. This will offer him the opportunity to learn early that when you have a dream, you can get it to flourish with dedication and hard work.
I love the look for the stain against the white fence in the background. I think the contrast there will aid in the locating the berries once the plants produce those beautiful sweet fruits. Everything is really shaping up and coming together on your new property. Cannot wait to see what the Hartley will look like with the existing yard. How is the front yard coming along in the entryway where the lilac tree is located?

What a wonderful environment for their children to grow up in...a natural playground full of endless activities and ways to spur their imaginations.
This garden 🪴 is becoming one of the most beautiful and remarkable gardens I have ever seen . What an amazing vision of pure splendor and abundance . Well done 🍃
Good morning!! Wonderful raspberry patch and fun family project. 💕
Good morning all! Those rasberries beds look so nice and match beautifully with fence. It's nice to have people that can make your vision a reality. Have a safe & fun Memorial weekend.
I think your Happy Hearts Garden is so inspiring. Look how many people look forward to watching it evolve day by day and the joy it gives everyone! You and Aaron are great examples of being good stewards of what you have been blessed with! ❤
Love the raspberry bed design and your so right those roots certainly travel!Wishing you a great crop !
Love the black fencing, arbors etc. it looks perfect. Anxious to watch everything grow .
What you guys do is so important! Helping people to get back to nature and take care of our basic needs well. Thank you!!
Its beautiful and with the red raspberries.....oh wow! Great choice guys. 🌷🌻🌷🌻
As soon as I watch you plant a new area in this garden, I envision a tour in the fall and anticipate the awesomeness! It is so much fun watching your vision come to life. It is a gardener’s paradise! 💞
Grew up in Boise in the 70’s and we had railroad ties edging every bed around our entire house! 😂
Born and raised and still here in Boise too! Railroad ties were definitely used here a lot!
We weren’t allowed to use RR ties in our veggie beds at the school I gardened at due to those ties having been sprayed with creosote (thanks soccermom).
My parents had railroad ties too but since they came from the an independent garden center they were not spray with anything. They worked great! My mother loved them.
People used what ever they could get their hands on. With those though I believe that a lot of people didn't realize the danger in them regarding the environment.
I watch a channel in Texas where she bought a property with cactus,bush, rock and developed it. I can't remember the rock name. But she made a raised bed around her house. Then made a raised bed around a grouping of trees and then made one to plant a beautiful tree, dark leaves and flowers, with a bright sweet potatoes vine. Its an amazing gift to be able to look out and see a vision and bring it together like Laura and this lady. I also found it fascinating how her free range chickens would go and dig up the actual sweet potatoes and eat away at them. And the vine came back like a perennial.
Laura, this is a wonderful bed design! I love, love, love the black stain on all your wood throughout your garden spaces!..Simply elegant and such a great contrast! So excited to see the cut flower garden come to life! Such a bounty of God on display! Love to you sister in Christ!
Love watching Benjamin. It is truly amazing how much he observes and then puts into practice. He is so focused for his age. I was wondering if you realized that very soon he will most probably surpass yours and Aaron's hopes and dreams of what he will become!!! He is part loving and happy Laura and part analytic and focused Aaron all wrapped into one incredible child!!!
Beautiful space that is going to be spectacular! Love all the black accents!
The structure of these beds is wonderful! Beautiful addition to the pots and obelisks. I love looking at the hard features as much as I do the plants! 😍
Oh this was such a magical addition to your garden. I can imagine Samantha Grace and Benjamin running around these beds. Playing and collecting fruit. You can't buy this life for your kids one can only create it with love. Some of the best of my childhood memories are collecting fruit and veggies from our garden and playing and climbing trees. You are giving your kids the best life. God bless you guys.
I can't wait to see all the yummy things you make with the raspberries! Picking berries at my aunts growing up is one of my favorite childhood memories.
That has to be the most elegant raspberry patch ever. Beautiful design!
Agreed
You're the hardest working mom on the internet! Always picture perfect and full of love. You are blooming better than anything you plant! You go girl! 👏👏👏 P.S. I realize it's a team effort but you glow and help others flow by being near you! 😊
You, Laura, are glowing and joy-filled and excited (as you say) from getting your raspberry bed in. It seems that you are so very healthy and it got me to thinking that this is because of your upbringing, eating from your own gardens (your parents and now yours) and being "in" nature, getting all the goodness from your environment, developing a strong immune system. Could that be? Anyone agree?
Yes I agree with you
You are looking quite fit these days!! Being a Momma of two sure does agree with you! ❤️👍🏻
Hello dear you can give me your WhatsApp number so that we can talk more better than here
The whole place is looking fab I can’t wait for the flowers 🤗🌸
My grandfather had an easy system for cutting raspberry canes. He would use three different colors of ties. One color for new canes, a second color for year old canes and a third color for two year old canes. Every fall he would cut down the oldest canes leaving 2/3 of the canes for next years crop. Ties can be loosely tied yarn, twist ties from bread wrappers or zip ties. Tie it on the stalk near the bottom where you will be cutting them off, that way you know which stalks to cut off every year. Since most raspberries and blackberries grow on new and one year old stalks this system works great. You will be thinning by one third every year. You can keep track of your year colors in a garden notebook. Be sure and choose bright colors that are easy to see so you can find them at the end of fall.
I love your descriptions on how you’ve done the construction on the raised bed and what materials you’ve used. It makes this more than a video about plants but also how you designed this barren land to make it specific for your needs. I can’t wait to see these crops once they have matured and start producing fruit. Thank you Laura for sharing your personal knowledge and experience with us. I know I speak for everyone when I say , “WE LOVE YOU”.
Our heritage raspberries were always so aggressive and took over any space you gave it!! But boy! Were those berries just the BEST!!! Gorgeous set up! Nice job Eddie and Tricia!! Laura/Aaron- it's amazing how just a short while ago all you had out there was DIRT!! Loving the evolution!!! So inspiring!!
Good Morning!!! 🌞 Whoa, those raspberry beds look Awesome!!!!! I have 2 raspberries plants & one of them is already reaching out of it boundaries. My beloved built an Amazing Grapevine Trellis. I may just have to show him this design!
Hello dear friend how are you doing today, you can give me your WhatsApp number so that we can talk more better than here
That garden looks so elegant and manicured. The black trimmings add lots of class. I would leave the walkways black rather than planting grass over them. They provide great contrast once the plants show their greenery and would be less work in mowing and edging.
Can't wait to see them grow and watch Benjamin and Aaron harvesting them.
As always, you did a fantastic job explaining the process in such detail.
The music, as always is right on point and at the right tempo to match the speed of the video when you were planting.
I loved watching Benjamin right inside the bed assisting you and pretending that he was fixing something at the end. With all the construction and demolition he has experienced in the past months, I gather his imagination is running wild.
Have a happy Memorial Day!! 👍🌱🌾 🌿
I learn a a lot from you guys BUT the most beneficial thing that has not only enhanced my gardening, but made me excited about going out each morning, is finding beautiful ways to grow. Seeing your new raspberry beds is another shot in the arm for my garden. The black wood is gorgeous out there on the huge area. And you also, explain how to do things on a smaller scale like mine. I now have added flowers to my vegetable garden and consider how the whole thing will look even just bare. This makes it so much more enticing to get out in there and work. Thank you for your over the top gorgeous gardens and beds and structures and pots and watering methods. NO way I can do all that but I learn everytime from you without you ever once acting like yours is gorgeous and so much better than my little attempt. Congrats on combining a warm & friendly welcome into your garden with no uppityness and showing me how to consider the beauty as important also. The best down-to-earth show around while maintaining a Disney World perfection for us to admire.
Lol, “were railroad ties a thing?” Yes they were! I live in Ontario, Canada in cottage country. Railroad ties everywhere on the property we bought. Tires too 😮. Love the black, great job. Excited for the strawberry bed.
Hi neighbour (in a more vast sense of the word!) I’m in Sarnia Ontario, 1 hour west of London at the border with Port Huron Michigan!
They were a thing in the 70s in Atlanta. I used them around a pool as a retaining wall with roses planted at the top of the wall. Was pretty back in the day.
I’m putting in raspberries and this video really helped me decide how, thank you for all you do, I have learned so much from you & Aaron and Benjamin is so cute wanting to help and learn gardening.
I love the raspberry set-up. It looks great and is well thought out and well built.
I don't have room for raspberries unfortunately but I did buy 2 pots of strawberries this year. I've never done that before but I'm branching out & trying new plants this year. Thank you Laura for the inspiration to try new things.
So happy to see your beautiful new raspberry beds. We love ours and enjoy frozen raspberries and jam year round. Laura you and your family are such an inspiration to us all. Thankyou, again!
Raspberry garden set up looks stunning Laura! You are such an inspiration for us. All the comments make me feel as if I am living in 70s as we use railroad ties in our garden 😬 when we started our garden in backyard, it seem to be a good way to partition the garden area and it definitely kept bermuda grass away from my flower beds. Have fun gardening!
If you have more than one row of raspberries it takes up so much room. Thanks for showing it to scale
Thank you for showing what you did. The structure for the beds is top notch quality.
Seeing Benjamin makes me sad I don't have kids. He's such a sweet, amazing little boy! I'm so excited to see all this come together!!
I love the look of that raised bed! The black theme you do through your garden makes the green pop so much and really looks elegant. Can’t wait to see the harvest you get this year. 😁
Hello my beautiful friend how are you doing, you can give me your WhatsApp number so that we can talk more better than here.
🌱Beautiful raspberry structures for your berry ‘patch’, and a cuppa with Laura, Aaron and Benjamin on this chilly day here in Michigan is a great respite from the long week. I’m so looking forward to “seeing you in the next one”! Have a wonderful weekend everyone 🌹❤️🇺🇸😍
As much as I like the natural colored wood stains, I LOVE the black!!
And I considered using railroad ties for a garden project and was told by the guy at the lumberyard that it wasn't a very good idea, because of the treatment used on those.. Hadn't really given it much thought prior.. So I decided on something different, just for the peace of mind..
If she starts complaining about hard water stains on the black stain, my head'll explode, lol.
@@Bamboo4U2 Lol!!! I didn't even think of that!!! 😂😂😂
I guess they're banking on them growing so big that you won't really see the staining.. But since they have drip, the only staining would be on the lower parts, if they do any more manual watering.
@@Bamboo4U2 Eh, they have drip in place so hard water stains won't be an issue. Dust/wind damage over time will definitely be an issue though! LOL
@@omegasage777 uh huh, sure. How many times have we watched her stain / spray paint / clean something because of hard-water stains, lol? But she just keeps painting everything black. Does anyone know how much it would cost for them to soften all the water, at the source of the well?
Yeah, they treat those railroad ties with Creosote. Bad stuff.
Railroad ties were the wood pallets of the late 70's early 80's. Cheap or free and multi functional. They're still everywhere at my parents house 😂😂
I love watching your videos so much. I especially love that in your comments you list all of the things you use so that I can try to recreate some of the things you do. It is soooo helpful. Thank you.
Using old railroad ties for landscaping projects such as retaining walls, garden edging, and raised garden beds was once very common practice, and it was even regarded as a good environmental strategy. As old railroad lines became repurposed as hiking and biking trails, repurposing the huge railroad ties in landscape work seemed like a good way to use the wood.
But most railroad ties are soaked with creosote to give them longevity, and in your landscape, they pose a health hazard as the chemical gradually leaches into the soil. As with many outmoded practices we learned from our grandparents or parents (like spraying dandelions with herbicide), we now understand that railroad ties are an environmental danger.
The Dangers of Creosote
The main issue with railroad ties is the presence of creosote. Although an effective preservative against decay and insect damage, the substance has been banned for residential use due to its toxicity. Creosote is an oily by-product of the distillation of coal tar. Creosote treatment of railroad ties allows long-term preservation of the wood, which must obviously stand up to heavy pressure and harsh weather conditions.
Is there a good similar substitute that has the same look?
@@greenpalmTX you can always try recycled redwood fencing by laminating them together. Redwood resists pest and rot and can be dyed.
Former owner of our house had used very old railroad ties to line our driveway. When we noticed that termites flying out in the spring from them we had them taken away by a disposal company!
Thank YOU for this knowledge...............great job Garden Answer FRIEND!!!
Our retaining wall is/was RxR ties, I say was and is because it is rotting and falling down, so now we have a huge job to get it fixed :(
One of the biggest battles in my yard, can't afford to hire help and can't do it all alone... its really overwhelming to me.
I removed the RxR ties that I could but there are lots left, the pieces that are left I can not remove alone, and there is a stump in the way of removing more and setting up the new bricks.
I don't want to make the wall move forward either because that will mess with my raised bed veggie garden :(
I really wish the original owner had not used RxR ties to make this wall, all those years ago....
Sigh...
Benjamin is so good at keeping himself busy. Love it :) :)
Very excited to see the strawberry patch you mentioned come together. A friend of mine has a raise circular bed in her front yard 10ft diameter and has strawberries in it- it is the most glorious spot in her garden. Strawberries aren’t a super showy crop but the production! You could go out every single day to harvest there and still go in with a basket full of strawberries. I’m sure you’re excited not only for the food production but for all the memories you’re going to build with Benjamin and Samantha. I’m sure Benjamin will soon claim the strawberry beds as his garden😂
Hello dear friend how are you doing, you can give me your WhatsApp number so that we can talk more better than here
Thank you for this video! You are the first to explain fall and spring bearing berries in a way I can remember!
I have learned so much from you. I wish I had discovered you years ago. You are so inspiring.
It is so exciting to see the progress. Yes your are right about your raspberries and their bed. It looks great. Love seeing the 3 of your doing it together. There is a shot of the 3 of you in the gater from the back. Perfect. a family working together. Can't wait for Benjamin to have his own garden. Hm what will he plant??? Great job .
Yep! She “romances the ordinary”. As her mom says.
Wonderland. Benjamin working hard with mom! Seriously your entire property is a wonderland for children.
As with all of your projects, I love this! The raspberry beds look fabulous, and the black just adds to their beauty. Raspberries are my favorite. I can see Benjamin rooting through the brambles to sneak his berries much like he does strawberries.
I have the best memories when it comes to raspberries! I used to spend a lot of time in my mom's patch just snacking away 😁 I definitely have my own patch and boy, are they a vigorous plant to grow!! I always give my rogue canes away in the springtime. It feels like a nice tradition trying to spread the joy of gardening! 😁 Excited for you! And man, oh man is Benjamin going to love a 30ft long bed of strawberries!! 🍓🥳
Benjamin is the most adorable kid!!!! You are Blessed!
This video came as a gift from the Heavens! I was just checking out some suitable raspberry plants for my area, and we were talking about where to plant them.
❤️Thank you for the inspiration ❤️
I LOVE everything abiut this video. Your happiness is ooooozing out of the sides of my screen! I love the ENERGY in this video and the pure satisfaction as you plant your raspberries. The structure just screams permanence, abubundance, and elegance.
Pure joy. What a great life. It all fits together perfectly❤
Everything is so perfect at your place ! Good work !
And it didn't happen overnight, project by project. day by day. one creation at a time.
The whole area is so beautiful! The black really stands out and will be a very nice contrast when filled with green :)
Thanks so much for sharing the logistics on this project. I've never grown berry bushes before and this information is brand new to me. And plus your set up is SO beautiful!
This is really coming together, going to be awesome. Love it, the dark color is beautiful. Your whole property makes me jealous, I want to live there. lol. Thanks for everything you and Aaron do, stunning just stunning.
This vlog fills my heart so much. I’ve loved the raspberry cameos (from your parent’s house) from the very beginning of GA. I have such wonderful memories of tending my own strawberry patch as a kiddo on my farm. 🥰I’m so excited for B&S! 🥰
Nice raspberry beds! The attention to detail (post caps, size of elements, black stain) elevates the structure from just utilitarian to a thing of beauty. I get so excited thinking about what this entire garden is going to look like in just a couple of short months! ~ Lisa
What a beautiful raspberry bed. You make the ordinary look extraordinary.
You are such an inspiration.
Our house in Iowa had railroad ties around all the beds when we moved in.
They are rotting and we've been replacing them with concrete block walls. I am so glad we don't need to run irrigation lines!
Might I say, you have the most neatest, well manicured and esthetically pleasing flower and vegetable garden on RUclips!😀. The raspberry bed is the best raised bed ever!😉
The black mulch pathway, the flower bed and fence make for a cohesive set up. I wondered when you and your husband purchased the property, what you would do with it. Well, I'm taking the journey with you as you continue to amaze us all on the ever expanding crop ideas that you bring. You are such an inspiration to me. All I need to do is bring my own vision to fruition, and share my progresses as I go. Thank you again.
That bed adds such beautiful structure to your space. What a transformation from last year!
They did a beautiful job on those beds, always loved as a child having blackberry patches and even as an adult looked forward to picking my dads blackberry bushes clean in Central Point Oregon, definitely want to add some Marionberrys as well..
This looks so good! Can't wait to see all the berries you get out of this space!
Hello everyone!
This raised beds look amazing. It's like give Laura a plant and some wood and she'll create beauty.
Now I'm thinking asparagus and strawberries and blueberries... so many good things!
I’m a 90’s kid and I remember my Mom using railroad ties in the garden:). I love how aesthetically pleasing these raspberry beds are! I want to start a raspberry patch now:)
Thanks for the walk down memory lane. My parents house in NY had railroad ties in the landscaping, and a huge patch of raspberries where we had to find creative ways to reach the berries in the middle. 😊
Aww thank you so much for sharing lovely lady ❤️ that whole area is going to look sooooo magnificent! Can’t wait to see what delicious raspberry related recipes you come up with in the future 😘 raspberries and chocolates go so well together, hint hint 😂 😉
Laura, I have a section of my raised bed garden planted with raspberries. We decided to put sheet metal down deeper than the raised bed wood in order to deter the plants from growing into the lawn. The metal extends up about an inch above the soil level so we can grow dahlias and green beans around the adjacent corner. Good luck. My kids love them, it is an all you can eat buffet in the fall. :)
The new beds are BEAUTIFUL!!! I love the black throughout the new space. What will you plant in the other bed until you're ready with your next raspberries? Just lovely!!!
This looks amazing, Laura! Could you (or any of your viewers!) speak to painted/stained materials when planting organically? I get so confused about people who say paints leach into the soil from painted lumber, etc. is it anything you take into consideration when creating planting beds like this one? I personally love those raspberry beds and would love to do something similar but haven’t due to this issue alone. Thank you! Love your channel!
So love this Laura. We plan to make a bed like this for privacy on our rural home place from a new house that we need to screen out... many thanks for showing this great plan.
I just love those planters. They go so well with the black fence.
