This enormous raised garden bed gives you loads space to neatly organize a variety of vegetables, herb, fruits or flowers. As pictured, your 11-inch-high raised garden gives you lots of depth to grow both underground veggies like carrots, garlic and turnips, as well as tall plants like tomatoes, corn or sunflowers. With 64 square feet of available planting area this may be all the garden you will ever need, but if you’d like to super-size your garden this kit can be converted into a 16’ x 16’ one-level 5. 5” high 128 square foot bed. Tool-free snap-lock joints make it simple to install. Your kit comes with everything you need except the soil and plants. Each modular kit includes sixteen of our 2” Classic Sienna composite boards, and eight each of our 2” snap-lock anchor and stacking brackets. The insulating open-channel boards trap air, providing insulation to your soil. Keeps soil warmer in the Spring and Fall, and cooler in the Summer, so you can grow for an extended period. Anchor brackets grip the ground tight, so your raised bed will stay put no matter the weather. The serrated stakes will also help to keep your raised beds from being disturbed by mowers or any human activity. Stacking brackets allow you to install the second layer of your garden just by inserting the stakes into the brackets below. Our patented snap-lock brackets simply slide onto each end of a board and fasten securely with snap-lock buttons. Brackets pivot 270 degrees, allowing endless design options. You can easily convert your bed to an octagon, just by changing the angle of the brackets. As your garden needs and expertise grow you can add on to your modular raised bed any time by purchasing additional 2” tool-free kits, boards and anchor or stacking brackets to stack or extend your garden. Curved 2” boards are also available to incorporate into your design. Did you know? You can grow up to 64 different plants inside your 8’ x 8’ garden using “Square Foot Gardening” techniques. There are countless books and online resources available to guide you in this rewarding method of gardening.

Best Raised Bed Available but Represented by the worst Manufacturer Rep - Please read before ordering!!!
If you are purchasing a composite raised bed that will give you unlimited options and last for years this is your best bet. The functionality at a lower price is 5 stars all day long. It would be nice if the ribbed stakes and stacking stakes would be interchangeable and more heavy duty. It would also be nice if they stepped up the quality of the wood grain texture. Then again you get a 50% thicker, more rigid boards than most all other units for about a 10-20% higher price which I prefer this over anything else.There are 2 very catastrophic issues that I much mention and YOU MUST PAY ATTENTION to. These are modular kits packaged in multiple boxes. So the 8'x8'x11" should come as box 1, 2, 3, and 4 of 4. Amazon shipped me box 2 of 4 for one order and 1 of 4 for the other order, so what I received was one half of one system for the price of 2 and my only option was to return and reorder. This is 90% Amazon warehouse issues but is explainable.The 2nd issue is the manufacturer rep and this one hurts me as a business owner myself. The boxes are labeled "__ of 4" on only one short side of the box. So if the pallets get turned any time after they leave the factory or gets stacked on shelves horizontally, no one picking orders can see that the product has multiple boxes.I personally feel that this raised bed solution is by far the best option for any gardener if the issues mentioned were addressed, so much so, that I spent 3.5 hours of my time explaining the issue to numerous amazon reps, and I also went so far as to contact the manufacturer to explain why they are getting so many "Missing Parts Bad Reviews". I explained the issue on why the mistakes occurred and why the reviews are destroying their reputation. The Manufacturer rep told me he would have the owner call me, and I did ask that for my effort and time, I would appreciate a free garden to add to the 5 or 6 that I'm buying just to start with. I also told him all the issues up front and explained any free product is to be provided as a gratitude gift, and not to be misconstrued as extortion because I believe in this product so much! Well, to make a long story short...NO Callback, NO Thanks, NO Respect! And people wonder why consumers are willing to buy everything from China Direct!If by some miracle you get all the parts you are supposed to get, you won't be disappointed. For around $4.00 a board foot you can get all the hinged hardware and stakes included that make this product so versatile. Just realize that with such poor manufacturer representation stateside, you probably won't be adding on to whatever you buy for long as the SKU will get dropped due to high return rates.

Sturdy and easy to assemble.
It was quite easy to put together. I'm in my sixties and it took me about 2 hours. I was worried about the quality because of the plastic fittings but it is very sturdy when assembled and shouldn't rust here in our Midwest weather. All pieces, parts and instructions were included in my shipment. I can't wait til next spring when I can get the plants into it.
