Green Building Materials How high do i need to build a vegetable patch?

Question by tansy c: How high do i need to build a vegetable patch?
I want to build a raised planter for a vegetable patch – what depth should i make it to ensure most vegetables will grow well??
I have a paved garden – thats why i need to have a raised bed instead of just planting them straight in the ground

It depends on what’s underneath the raised bed (earth? concrete), but somewhere in the area of one foot deep should do it. If you want to grow root crops (carrots, potatoes, etc) that require more depth, just use a large planter or something like that.

Good luck!
