Wooden Raised Bases

Raised bed gardening is very popular, especially for growing vegetables. Not only do raised garden beds look great, but:

The soil drains better and warms more quickly

There is less bending down

Weeding and cultivation are easier

Soil is never walked on and compacted

Permanent paths can be laid between beds

One of the unique benefits of the Access raised bed system is its compatibility with our Cold Frames. For even earlier cropping an Access Frame can be placed directly onto the raised base. When the bed needs to be worked on, the Cold Frame can easily be removed from the base, allowing easy planting or digging over. The optional watering system will ensure that the plants are watered even inside the Cold Frame.

Timber raised beds for growing vegetables

Timber raised garden beds have a number of advantages over growing directly into the soil. As the wooden bed is raised off the ground, the sun will warm the soil in the timber bed more quickly, allowing the growing season to start earlier. When planting flowers or vegetables, this allows everything to gain a head start. As the raised bed is above ground level, there is less bending involved.

The wooden boards used in the timber raised bed are pressure treated for a long life outdoors.

One of the unique benefits of the Access raised bed growing system is the ability to add a cold frame to the top. The cold frame provides and enclosed, protected area for the vegetables to grow in, extending both ends of the growing season. If necessary the cold frame can be removed from the timber base later in the season to allow taller crops to grow to their full height. Alternatively, the top glass of the cold frame can be removed to allow the plants to grow through the top. In this way, vegetables such as beans and sweetcorn can benefit from wind protection from the side glass of the garden frame.
