Vegetable beds using linkabord system


When we come to do the garden at the end of the year/early next year I am thinking of redoing my veg plot, but instead of using wood as my raised beds I am thinking of using the linkabord system, it will save me loads of time painting/maintaining it. I have heard loads of good reviews. Has anybody used them??

They look really nice Emma - I think they would probably be ideal for low maintenance etc. I've not seen them before tho so can't comment on the personally.

Wow, I'm very, very impressed with those, Emma! Fantastic idea, and much lower maintenance than the usual raised beds! Plus looking good! I'd never heard of them, but am going to check to see if they or something similar are available here in the States...ideal for a small City yard........

I've seen them but not used them. I would if I had a small veg patch in a back garden - bit expensive to kit out the allotment.
I think they're great - please post how you get on with them
