How to fill Birdies raised garden bed?

Just bought this and wondering if I fill it just with soil or whether gravel or something goes in the bottom. It is for herbs and veggies 😎. Ta!

Re: just bought a birdies raised garden bed

Hi @deborah1,

 

The top 300mm of soil needs to be of a good quality garden soil. The bottom half of the 820mm high bed can also be filled with a more budget-friendly mix as this tends to be the most cost effective and is generally lighter making it easier to handle. Here's a helpful guide you might like to check out: How to fill a raised garden bed.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.
