Why I Used Plywood and OSB for Raised Garden Beds (& Why Not)
Sharing why I chose plywood and OSB, two stereotypically poor choices, to build my own raised garden beds. Also showing the extra step we added to protect the soil and plants from the chemicals in these kinds of lumber.
Sadly, these sheets of plywood and OSB will last longer than I had originally intended, but better safe than sorry since there are growing fruits and veggies we intend to eat.
AAAAND that’s what experiments are for, right?
