Raised bed gardening is the type of gardening wherein the soil bed is raised for about 6 inches or waist high before planting. Unlike traditional gardening, raised bed gardening is not directly planting the crops on the ground but creating boxes of plots first before planting. There are many advantages of raised bed gardening and one of the main advantages is the fact that it offers stress-free planting and harvesting of the crops. Since the soil bed is raised waist high, gardeners do not have to bend down much in order to plant or harvest their crops.

This is also a pest-free and weed-free way of gardening. Since the soil bed is raised and you are not directly planting on the ground, pests like slugs would find it hard to climb up and enter the soil bed and weeds can't easily grow on the soil that you have prepared for planting. Most of all, raised bed gardening is also aesthetically appealing as they make your garden look organized.
