Building a raised bed planter

Describe the most ambitious DIY project you’ve ever taken on.

Over ten years ago the gardening bug bit me.

My Mom was a great gardener. She was just wonderful in the garden where everything she planted flourished. I helped a little but it didn’t take for me until her back began to ache too much.

Then, I tried my hand at it. 

First, I planted cherry tomatoes. That was cool. Even my clients would  bring me cuttings from their gardens. These are serious gardeners.

Then, I bought a kit to build a planter. It was a challenge but it turned out good. Then I got ambitous, and built one from my own design.

I went to the lumber yard and asked the nice cute guy working there to help me. He made suggestions, measured and cut the wood.

That same day, I completed my raised bed planter.

Love it.

I am so proud of me.
