Characterized by smaller individual planters, raised garden beds are much easier to maintain than an in-ground garden, thanks to their approachable size and functionality. You won't need to do any heavy lifting in your yard to prep the area, like tilling your soil or investing in pricey landscaping. Instead, you can buy quality soil in bulk and customize your raised garden beds to whatever configuration you need, whether that's adjusting the location for additional sunlight or raising the height of the bed so you're not straining your back or knees. "Taller raised beds are easier to tend to, which can be especially important for aging gardeners or those with limited mobility," says Jonathan Paetzel, a landscape designer with Marshall Paetzel Landscape Architecture. | |||
