RAISED GARDEN BED INSPIRATION

In an effort to be more sustainable I have decided to build raised garden beds, but I haven't decided on the design and style I want to go with. Here are some inspiration pictures that I have been looking at to give me ideas of what I want to do.

Which one do you think I should go for? Have any other great raised garden bed ideas?

WOOLLY POCKETS

My passion for gardening has increase since quitting my job. I now actually have the time to be outside cultivating what I am growing (not to mention all the weeding that has to be done on a continuous basis). Just the other day I was doing some research on various gardening techniques and ideas when I came across a website called Woolly Pocket.  I, of course, had to check out a website with this name and man was I excited (in a good way).

I quickly became obsessed with the products featured on this site because it offers a different way of gardening. The products this website offers are divided into three different categories: the modular living wall system, the modular garden, and free standing pockets.

Modular Living Wall System: Wally

The Modular Garden: Meadow

 Freestanding Pockets: Islands

These products are flexible and breathable gardening containers that are made up of 100% recycled materials. They come in black, chocolate, peacock blue, and camel hair. The reason why I am obsessed with these products is because you can use them both inside and outside and it offers gardening both vertically and horizontally.  The containers have a moisture barrier, so if using them inside it protects your furniture and floors, as well. Hope you fall in love with Woolly Pockets as much as I have! For more information and in depth description of how these containers work check out there website here.
