Recycled Ideas for making Raised Garden Boxes?

gscas, Mar 16, 11:28pm
Would like afew raised garden boxes and would like to recycle something but can't think of anything, have thought of a child's old water play trough, old wheelbarrows. Would like something with a bit of height.
The Re-start Container Mall in Christchurch has some beautiful new trough like boxes on legs made from steel, so picturing something like this.
Plan to visit the dump/recycling centre buy its raining today.
Thanks

I guess you've thought of an old bath but what about building a box from old pallets.Lots of businesses give them away and they're made from good timber.

Pallets are treated so won't last long.but one option for them is.across the top staple weed mat.flip it over.so the boards are now on top.Fill with soil and then plant between the boards.am trying to find a picture for you.They look really cool.
