Create a Kitchen Garden Using 3-ft. Raised Beds

Use the following diagrams to create your own kitchen garden, or potager. The small diagram at right shows the overall structure of the garden, which is made up of four 3-ft. raised beds with gravel pathways between the beds. Details for each quadrant are shown in the larger diagram, below.

You can make your own 3-ft. raised beds, or try one of these options:

• Grow Bed (3-ft.)
• Raised Bed Corners

For more options, see our plan that uses 4-ft. raised beds.
