RE: Weekly Homesteading Newsletter (WHN) - Issue #2
Love the raised beds with pallets. Does anyone know if you have to paint or seal them to protect them from rot over seasons? I would be interested in making a few. As always thanks for the great newsletter. Keep them coming.
According to the article, he said he "lined the inside of the boxes with a Heavy Landscape Fabric which keeps the soil from washing out but allows for good drainage. I then painted the borders and added a water sealer to the outside of the beds to give them some durability against the elements and hopefully get years of use out of them." I would assume they would need something to keep them from rotting, especially with so much water!
Thank you, I will keep that in mind. Happy Gardening
