is another example of a re-purposed material to build a raised bed. I can't tell if
the corrugated material is metal or fiberglass, but it appears to be connected with electric-
al ties (zip ties) to metal fence posts. If these are zip ties, they will not last long under this
type of pressure. The material could be bolted or wired to the posts, but other than that, this
raised bed should work well. This bed appears to be longer on the opposite side indicating
the builder was making use of salvaged materials. You can already see foot prints in the bed
since it is so wide, which defeats the purpose of a raised bed. Not the best looking raised
bed, but it will look better when plants are growing in it.
