Raised beds for accessibility. Nine junk truck tires, some metal roofing and wood strips plus hardware.

They left the sides open to be able to put a foot under to go easier on your lower back. I would either close it in or put something on the ground to block grass/weeds. Tough spot even for a string trimmer.

Is there anything more useful on the farm than junk tires? I think not!

Great set-up. Our plant is to ‘raise’ all of our raised beds as I get older by adding a second ‘layer’ of wooden frames to them.
