🌿 DIY Wednesday: Simple Raised Garden Beds
Get your hands dirty and grow your own veggies!

Mark your space using string or stakes. - Build the Frame: Use untreated wood like cedar or pine. Screw the corners tightly. - Prepare the Ground: Remove grass, add cardboard or landscape fabric to prevent weeds. - Fill It Up: Layer with compost, topsoil, and a mix of organic matter. - Plant and Water: Choose easy starters like tomatoes, lettuce, or herbs.

Green Living Tip✔️ |
🌱 Weekly Eco Living Tip
Did you know that food scraps and yard waste make up more than 30% of what we throw away? Instead of sending them to the landfill, consider starting a compost bin in your backyard or using a countertop compost pail for easy collection. Composting not only helps enrich soil but also reduces the need for chemical fertilizers and cuts down methane emissions from landfills. You can start with fruit and veggie peels, coffee grounds, eggshells, and dry leaves, while avoiding meat, dairy, and oily foods. ♻️ Small actions lead to big change. Make composting a weekly habit and turn your waste into nourishment for your garden and the planet! |
