The Eden raised garden able by Riverstone is the ideal vegetable and herb growing system. The system assembles in under 30 minutes with no tools. The unit blends into all environments nicely and can be stained or painted to match any exterior setting including your porch or deck. The elevated growing surface and covering system allow it to accomplish things a standard garden cannot, similar to a greenhouse. The elevation is the perfect height for sitting and gardening, perfect for bad backs. The best and most nutritious vegetables come from warm, rich, weed and pest free soil. The raised garden table's elevated growing surface is always substantially warmer in the spring than the ground level under it. Also, as you fill the raised garden table with rich soil and pure compost, you are maximizing the organic nutrients needed for perfect vegetables. With this system, the soil can be weed free, with no slugs or snails, grubs or weeds, with no need for chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Possibly the best feature is gardening while sitting on a stool or bench. Also included is the optional UV protected covering (RGT-T23) with protective mesh netting to keep insects and rodents out, trap the sun's warmth while allowing air to flow within the garden. This is a great option for your garden which will extend your growing season as well as protect your crops from too much rain, wind, pets and any other animal roaming nearby. Color: natural. Material: Cedar.
