This weekend, before getting the flu, farmer Phil built a raised bed in our back yard with concrete blocks, chicken wire, and soil. We planted tomatoes, bell peppers, a habanero chile. We also planted many herbs, IN the concrete blocks!

I love the raised plant bed! Great use of the blocks. Did you put anything at the bottom under the soil?
I hope Phil is feeling better.
Phil is feeling better, thankfully. Yes, we put chicken wire on the ground and weighted it down with the blocks, then put the soil in. I don't think burrowing animals will be an issue at our place, but you never know! I think the blocks were a stroke of genius also (Philip's idea)!
