If you’ve been thinking of starting a raised bed garden, here’s a deal you might wish to consider: this cute 48″ X 48″ Greenes Cedar Raised Bed Garden is selling for just $29.88 right now at Home Depot! Have it shipped to the store and you can avoid paying any shipping costs. (Dealnews is reporting this is more than $20 under the lowest shipped price they could find elsewhere.)
According to the product description, this looks like a perfect option if you want something simple and easy to assemble as there are NO tools required and takes minutes. The depth is 7 inches of soil, and if more depth is required, you can buy and stack additional kits. You can also connect additional kits if you want greater square footage:
When connecting the raised beds this way, 4 kits will contain enough boards, tops, and posts to create 5 4 x 4 beds—you get 80 square feet, or 4 ft. x 20 ft., of garden space when connecting 4 kits.
I think this could be a really easy, inexpensive option to constructing raised bed gardens! Head on over to Home Depot to check out this deal. I’m tempted to pick up a couple of these myself!

I bought 6 of these last week… the day before they went on sale! But HD was excellent about giving me a credit for the difference when i went back. My store was almost sold out on Sunday so I would call ahead and have them hold some before you go.
They are SUPER easy to put together. A rubber mallet helps with some of the joints that were a bit tight but otherwise no issues at all. Not sure how long they will last – but for the price it’s a good value, IMO.
Island_Girl, does it specify if the wood is treated or untreated? Thanks!
Personally, I’d be VERY surprised if they are treated!
Angela – this is AWESOME! I live in a townhome with a bricked backyard (no dirt at ALL) and have been drooling over all the garden ideas…thank you! I am going to totally grab this!
Catina 🙂
Hooray!! Glad to have you on board the gardening train! You’ll love it!
These are not treated
