I did something like this using turkey wire.

But I didn't cover it with plastic. It's for keeping out critters and if there's a frost or freeze warning, I throw some old sheets or curtains over it.

Right now it's over my lettuce.

The nice thing about the roll of turkey wire is that since it comes in rolls, it likes to remain curved, so makes a nice semi-circular shape. Mine aren't as tall as that though. I also put chicken wire across the ends for discouraging critters.

Nice set-up! ‘Organic’ Critter Control. ;)

Something like that would work great for my raised beds - what is the frame made of ... did you make it or get it somewhere?

The picture here has some sort of a frame. Then again, I now see you did “something like this” so evidently, you just used the wire (?). Sorry for the confusion.
