Birdies is Australia’s leading raised bed manufacturer — and for good reason. Birdies raised beds are a perfect combination of Quality, Durability, Versatility, Safety, Sustainability, and Style. Wherever you’re growing, and whatever you’re growing, Birdies has a raised bed that’s right for your gardening needs today, and for many years into the future.
Quality
Birdies original metal beds are made with 24-gauge cold-rolled galvanized steel with an Aluzinc coating 3x as thick as competing beds. Birdies Corten beds grow strength and beauty out of .7mm Corten weathering steel.
Durability
Using high-quality materials and coatings makes for long-lasting Birdies raised beds (some of their original prototypes are still going strong after more than a decade of garden use!). In tests, Birdies metal beds resisted corrosion up to 7x better than standard galvanized steel.
Safety
All materials and coatings in Birdies raised beds are non-toxic, leach-free, and completely safe for growing food. Plus, Birdies raised beds swap sharp metal corners for rounded edges (and those are the only corners that Birdies cuts).

Versatility
Modular metal beds in both Aluzinc and Corten steel allow you to choose from 9 configurations for your Birdies raised bed. With varying heights and shapes, as well as optional self-watering capabilities, our Birdies raised beds raise the bar for container gardening.
Sustainability
From their solar-powered factory to their closed-loop steel recycling, Birdies prides itself on prioritizing the planet with greener practices and processes.
Style
With a simple yet modern aesthetic, and modular options that perfectly adapt to your space, Birdies beds fit just as well in backyard gardens and on urban rooftops.
