Gardening YouTube sensation Huw Richards shows how to inexpensively grow year-round vegetables from just one raised bed.
Keyed to a temperate coastal climate but adaptable to variations in temperature and rainfall, Huw's clear, practical advice will help you produce a bountiful harvest with minimal space and effort.
In just one raised bed, green thumb wunderkind Huw Richards shows you how to grow vegetables easily, organically, abundantly, and inexpensively so you have something to harvest every month of the year.
Month by month, discover what you need to do and how to do it. Try it in your yard, a small garden, or even on a roof terrace.
Everything is explained in clear, photographed steps: building your bed, growing from seed, planting, feeding, and harvesting. Huw shows how to guarantee early success by starting off young plants on a windowsill. He suggests what to grow in each part of the bed and provides alternative vegetables to swap in or out depending on what you like eating. No-dig gardening methods remove most of the back-breaking work, too.
Veg in One Bed goes beyond the inspiring demonstrations on his YouTube channel
Huw's Nursery. In this book, he organizes all of his ideas and suggestions into a blueprint for growing your own vegetables month by month. Very little growing experience? Only a small space? No matter--with
Veg in One Bed, you can still eat food you have grown throughout the year.

My advice is this, don't go overboard with it and keep it on the smaller side. If they don't like it or lose interest in it after a year you will be tearing it down and disposing of the materials (plus fixing the yard). If they like it, you can always expand it or add a second area. A couple of 2x6's, posts for corners and to brace longer sides, and some screws and you are good to go. You need nothing more than a drill and this job is done in minutes (HD and lowes will cut boards to length if you don't have a saw). You will also be hauling dirt in bags or getting the landscape co to deliver.
Don't put it right on top of grass, read the book or watch some videos.
The first winter you eat vegetables from your garden you might be hooked.

Maybe his secret is to combine the four beds into one megabed.
