I’m really not exaggerating about the title here. If there is an easier way build a raised garden bed or planter box, I haven’t found it, and I would venture that it doesn’t exist outside of just purchasing buckets to put your garden in. The GREATEST thing about this gardening system is that it can transform and is totally modular. Choose any shape on a grid pattern and you can make it. As long as you have enough of these Oldcastle Planter Wall Block connectors, you can make your garden into any shape:

All that is necessary is a plan as to what shape you want to build (right angle shapes only) and to figure out how many corner pieces you need, and how many of each size boards you need. In my case, I built a 6 foot by 2 foot bed. I took an 8 foot wood board (2”X6”X8’) and cut 2 feet off of the end with my handy circular saw (amzn.to/2EG2YF3), leaving me with a 6 foot piece and a 2 foot piece. I did that two times and BAM I’ve got all the ingredients (less garden soil) for a raised garden bed.

Here is a complete list of everything that is needed:

Corner Connectors (4 of them) (amzn.to/2EEPCc7)

2” x 6” x 8’ Lumber (2 of them… I opted to not go with pressure treated)

Landscape Fabric (amzn.to/2EDmt0R)

Garden Soil (3 bags or 6 cubic feet)
