Raised bed against fence--possible solution?

6 years ago

HI all

I've seen many posts here advising against putting a raised bed against a wooden fence. I understand why (even though it crushed my dreams a bit) and am wondering thoughts on this possible solution.

These are corners so you can build your own raised beds, all you have to supply is the lumber. If I kept the dirt level below the top of the raised bed (obviously) and perhaps the back of the beds a few inches away from the fence, could this work? Possible problems I'm not thinking of? I really want to add some height and layering which is why I want things off the ground (and to keep some plants away from the dang rabbits).


Advice appreciated!
