Fresh herbs, vegetables, and bright, beautiful flowers make summer feel extra special. With these elements, your backyard will feel like an oasis from the daily grind. With help from Huber Lumber Co in Cincinnati, OH, you can easily build a useful (and aesthetically pleasing) raised garden bed to grow gorgeous plants in no time.

• Location: Survey your yard and try to identify a space that gets ample sunlight. Make sure, when you mark off a space of about 15 square feet, that you will be able to access the garden bed from multiple sides.
• Material: It’s important to choose a long-lasting material so that your time and effort don’t go to waste. Many people opt for cedar because it is naturally rot-resistant and hardy. The building supply professionals at Huber Lumber Co can advise you on the best option and will help you select the right amount of wood for your project.
• Weed and root avoidance: One of the great advantages of a raised garden bed is that you can have a great deal of control over it. Stop weeds and roots from invading your new garden by creating a physical barrier.
