I’ve considered doing a table garden for my wife (not me, I am way too ADHD to be trusted with plants). Biggest issue I worry about with it is having all the soil wash away through the cracks.

Yes I could buy a kit, but for me it’s more about the designing and building process than the finished product.

Nicely done, Cedar!

Thank you for the info and the step-by-step! I'm not sure I'll be doing raised beds this year. I'm doing a table herb garden to start and I want to get a fruit tree or two and a bougainvillea to climb the pergola.

The time to plant fruit trees is now, or in late fall.

It's best not to rush into a garden the first year or so, until you understand where it will be best to put it and your growing area.

Yep. And that's why I have the raised herb bed thingy and will be starting with that this year. I grew up with a prolific peach tree in the back yard and an equally prolific lemon tree in the front. I really want that again.
