My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Cedar plank source?

10 years ago
What wood and dimensions are your raised bed planks? Any ideas for where to get cedar plans for raised beds in southern or central Maine?

    Hi and thanks for your question! These beds are not built of cedar, but pressure treated pine. Our beds vary in height, using combinations of stacked 2x6, 2x8 and 2x10 boards. You'll want them to be a minimum of 12-13" deep. If you are set on cedar, I would check with your local lumber yard. If they don't carry it, they will be able to steer you in the right direction. Good luck with your project!
