Cedar Raised Gardens - A Look at Cedar Garden Raised Garden Beds

Without a doubt, the most popular type of raised bed garden is the cedar raised garden. Cedar is a popular wood species to use in the garden because it naturally resists rot and insect infestation, not to mention that’s it’s an attractive wood. Often showcasing it’s knotty character, it adds some beauty to the raised garden bed, and cedar can last for decades if properly cared for.

Generally cedar raised gardens are sold in a kit that includes the precut cedar sections and the hardware to assemble the rails into a raised bed. The wood is often sanded and predrilled. the better kits include stainless steel hardware so that the hardware will remain attractive as long as the cedar will.

For longer beds there are usually finials included to provide support and add to the beauty of the bed. The simplest designs have a flat cap to the finials, while others make them a little more ornamental with a slight peak or oven a rounded ball shape. Some less expensive kits use metal corners that aren’t as decorative but will weather the elements well.

A couple of models are designed to work not only as raised beds but cold frames as well. The addition of a simple protective top gives a great place to harden off those early transplants.
