Our Most Popular No-Bend Garden Box is Now Self-Watering Sturdy & Durable Materials:  Naturally rot-resistant cedar & rust-resistant aluminum corners Made By Us, in the USA:  We manufacture these high-quality beds by hand in our Vermont facility Self-Watering Convenience:  More consistent moisture & less work No-Bend Gardening:  Elevated beds are easier on your back & knees Quick & Easy Assembly:  Build & plant your bed in under an hour! We didn't think we could make our best-selling 2' x 8' Elevated Planter Box any better — but that didn't stop us from trying! In addition to the huge harvests, good looks, and durable materials this planter box is already known for, we supercharged this planter with self-watering convenience! Perfect for deck or patio growing, this generously sized garden box with a 10" planting depth supports bountiful harvests of veggies, fruits, flowers, and herbs! At 29" high, it's also the perfect height for no-bend gardening, so you can grow and tend more comfortably. For even more successful growing, we added 20 gallons of self-watering capacity from 4 connected reservoirs, extending time between waterings and creating more even moisture throughout the bed. In tests, our crops grew stronger, taller, and faster!  Like our other Vermont-made raised beds, the rot-resistant cedar sides are held in place with our rust-resistant, industrial-strength Lifetime aluminum corners. The slatted base allows excess water to drain through while the permeable fabric liner keeps soil contained. For best results, we recommend filling with 17 bags of our premium potting mixes: Organic Raised Bed Mix (20 qts.) Self-Watering Potting Mix (20 qts.)   Organic Self-Watering Potting Mix (20 qts.)
