Herb Garden Revisited

We salvaged 2 x 6 ft, and 2 x 8 ft boards from a neighbor down the street to build the frame for this raised herb garden bed. We used 2 x 8 and 2 x 10 ft old pine wood that we got for free from a local cedar mill company to build the angled deck path through the garden. We hauled in 2 yards of loam/triple mix compost for Organics by Gosh. We transplanted citrus trees/herbs/succulents, added more herbs and plants. We rebuilt this garden in the spring of 2013.
