Early spring is the moment we all start to turn our attention to the growing season ahead, and it’s the perfect time to prepare your raised garden beds for planting.
Vegetables are heavy feeders and soil will be depleted after a year of cropping, but a little work now will set your raised garden beds up for another year of strong growth – whether you’re planning to sow seeds directly or plant out young seedlings. From refreshing the soil with fresh compost to checking the bed itself is structurally sound (you might want to swap a rotting wooden one for something like this galvanized steel raised garden bed from Amazon, for example), there's a lot to do before getting any plants in.
