  • I live in Ontario Canada and we have had the worst winter I remember.
    March 10 is my birthday and occasionally I have worn shorts and tshirts. This year I walked through drifts of 3 1/2 feet of snow just to get to my front door! The only thing getting me through this winter is thinking about gardening and the freshness of new life in the spring.

  • The fresh smell in the air. Seeing everything come to life!

  • One of the reasons I love the spring is the smell of citrus blossoms!

  • I love spring because I can dig in the dirt and plant seeds.

  • What I love most about Spring is the crisp, clean smell in the air. I love hearing the birds singing in the trees and feel the sun on my face. Seeing things grow and pop up is nice to see the earth come alive again!

  • I love the smell of freshly turned dirt. I love the smell of my greenhouse as I open it for the season and dig my hands into the soil. I love cleaning the debri from my hastas and cedum so they can warm up and grow. I love that the yard around my house turns green and lush. I love the rebirth that comes with spring.

  • I love seeing the excitement in my children’s eyes when they spot the first spring blossom.

  • I love the beautiful colors and smells of spring. Cutting flowers to bring indoors and finding new things that pop up out of the ground each time I walk around our property.

  • I want the plans!!!

    I love the smell of spring….fresh and clean. I love the colors of spring…new green and I love the feel of spring…..eagerness. I am ready for it to be here soon. No more cold weather please.

  • I love preparing the garden beds for new little plants. Love the excitement of people who garden around spring. They are smiling and happy to put their hands in dirt πŸ™‚

  • What I like about Spring. This year is especially exciting because I purchased the home I will end my days in. Even though it is 20 years old there are NO beds. It has four very mature post oaks and waiting for landscaping. Since I will retire in this house I want to have gardens that are easily accessible as my body begins its journey to the compost pile. This Spring the excitement of working my outdoor canvas is thrilling.
    I want the plans!!!! Please

  • Perfect for my yard! Can’t wait for Spring.

  • I want and need the plan because I am going to be completely lost without it. I am on a tight budget; reason why I am trying to plant a garden in the first place along with needing to be healthier for health reason. Lastly, I grew up farming on a big farm and dreaded the required labor needed. Now I miss the connection to earth and the joys my family and my sisters shared shelling purple hull peas until your thumbs were purple. I need this plan to reconnect me to when life was simple and the only crazy stuff going on in my world was wondering who was dating who and waiting for the annual showing of Cinderella or the wizard of oz. I am truly showing my age right about now.

  • This looks fab….I’ve had multiple joints fused the last few years so my gardening has become more and more difficult. I miss it. This looks like the answer!!

  • I want the plans because I am a new gardener and can use all the help you can give me.

  • Would love how to build the ones with legs. I need this for my strawberry beds. My back is killing me!!!

  • I want these, cause I live in a KOA campground & I’m not allowed to plant a garden, grr! Thank you for the chance to win.

  • I want the plans…. We sold our house this past fall and now live in a rental town house . I would love to learn how to make my own raised bed to garden in!

  • I so need those plans! I have limited space for a garden! I just love Spring, period! Thanks!

  • What I love about Spring is waking up to hearing the birds singing. Seeing the new flowers blooming and fresh vegetables.

  • Spring is here and I can’t wait to plant a NEW garden as ours blew away in the May 19, 2013 tornado. Starting from scratch and would LOVE to rebuild using these ideas! THANKS!

  • I want the plans because our large garden didn’t do too well last year due to the soil composition so I am trying raised beds this year.

  • What I love most about spring is being able to clean out the garden, planting a variety of beautiful flowers and being able to just spend time outdoors with my kidsshowing them and letting them help with planting inour garden. Their facesare priceless and they love to help plant the seeds and wach the butterflies go by.

  • I want the plans! PLEASE!! So very, very anxious for spring ~ especially this year! Winter in central Minnesota has been brutal this year: sub-zero temps, lots of snow, and 8″ of more snow yesterday March 18th. Can’t wait to be outside and play in the dirt. Love the idea of your raised garden! We live in the country, but the really good soil is in the horse pasture LOL!

  • I love just being able to go outside and feeling the warm sun on my skin while hearing the birds singing in the trees! This has felt like a never-ending winter and I’m sooo ready for spring to arrive!! I’m itching to garden again!!

  • I have always loved gardening but as a single mom, I did not have the time to devote to gardening as much as I wanted. Unfortunately, I became disabled in March of 2010. I’ve gone through an enormous dark time and for about 8 months now, I am trying to look at positives. One of which is the arrival of spring and with that, always brings me hope. I saw the pin showing the standing containers and about how it is easier due to no bending, etc. While I can only stand or walk for a short time, I became excited because I could possibly get a rolling chair or stool so I can roll around them! Now Hope and Excitement! Either way, I am going to try my best to get my brother to build me something similar. I’m not sure where to start or what for sure to grow, but I’m going to give it a darn good try! Thank you!

  • Would love the plans as we have a free range pot bellied pig and would like to be able to get to eat more of the produce than she…may be a good way to keep her “snoot” out of the plantings.

  • Waking to the sound of the birds singing,squirrels chirping and school children laughing. The smell of freshness in the breezes I awaken all over. My mind heart and soul become calm and I know due to the spring I could utilize the plan.

  • I want these plans because this year we are putting in our first raised beds! So, why not start out RIGHT with Raised Urban gardens!! I love spring cause my grandmother instilled the love of gardening, flowers and planting and I love spending time in the garden.

  • Would love to win the plans! I’m on Disability and it makes it so hard for me to bend, kneel down(and then get back up, ha), etc.. These would work perfectly for me! Have a Great Day! πŸ™‚

The sound of birds chirping, the taste of the first burgers off the grill, the glorious vision of the first flowers to open their buds, the cleansing smell of rain, and the feel of fresh cut grass under my feet all awaken the senses that have been dormant all winter.

  • Fresh morning jogs, the unearthing of dirt, and the garden gloves all sing of triumphant spring. To celebrate this new “unearthing” of life, please pick me for plants!

  • I want the plans and am desperate to learn how!!~!~

  • Hi, Springtime is when I begin to thaw out after the chills and thrills of winter, being from Florida I have had to get used to the cold in Louisiana but my heart is here with the granbabies. I love spring because its a season of rebirth, seeing Gods creations come back to life after being hibernated and seeing all the flowers start to bring their brilliant color. I would love to have a raised garden and thank you for being such a help! God Bless Giva

  • Spring lifts my spirits!!! Having your plans would help me garden this year… I have some new health issues and bending over in my traditional raised beds is difficult. I really like your “raised” raised beds!

  • here in Arizona, I love to see the wild flowers blooming on the sides of the roads in peoples front yards through the rocks!

  • The return of the birds chirping and the frogs peeping are one of my favorite beginnings of spring!!!

  • What do I love most about spring? Being warm again. And digging in my garden.
    I would LOVE to have the plans.

    I simply must raise the beds or quit trying.
    I have been following your blog (first found you on Pintrest) and it was truly a lightbulb moment for me.

    Lindsey

  • I can’t wait to start my own garden!

  • I want the plans! I love Spring because all the birds sing, the redbud trees bloom, the Bluebonnets bloom (Texas) plus the fragrance of new growth makes me feel glad to be alive!!

  • Spring means playtime outside, warm sun on my skin, and the chance for me to bond with nature again. Spring means I again have been given the opportunity to grow food for my family – I know where it came from, what has been put into the soil, what the plants are fed to grow and am able to pass this knowledge on to my children so they can the pass this on to their children.

  • I love my little bees getting out to fly. I can’t wait for my first salad from the garden. Always new varieties of vegetables to try, never enough garden space.

  • I am from Argentina!!!!! Looooove Spring, but right now, autum un starting here. I dont have any plants but I am planning to start right now. so glad I found you in pinterest!!! sorry for my english!

  • I love spring for new beginnings. It means everything has a chance to rejuvenate! I would love the plans for the garden. I tried my hand at one last year, but the weeds always overtake things. Also, my big dog (named Butch) loves to dig where I do, but tends to take out all the seeds or plants…it would be great to have it up off the ground so he didn’t think it was his playground!

  • I would love to have these plans since my yard is way too wet to really have a decent garden! I hope you pick me☺️

  • I would love to have a raised garden.

  • I love everything about Spring. The smell, everyone making an appearance, and the veggies. I would love a garden so I can grow my own smoothie ingredients. $2/cucumber at the store is killing me!

  • I love Spring! I’ve got tomatoes, eggplant, lettuce, gourds and Irish Moss started in peat moss planters that are starting to sprout inside. I would rather put them in raised beds instead of the planters I was planning on. I love everything about the Spring – everything begins fresh again πŸ™‚

  • The smell of rain on the soil. The spring baby animals and the sprouts of seeds you are growing.

  • What I Love about spring!…..The smell of the earth being reborn as the sun warms it up, the sound and sight of the birds soa and nesting materialring in the air and watching them gather their spring fresh food and their nestimg material. Newborn birds, deer, bunnies, and of coarse the return of the Sandhill Cranes! I Love Spring! I Want The Plans!! Happy Spring Michigan!

  • I love spring because it means new and excitement are in the air and in the DIRT! I loved the raised beds. They remind me of my sand table in my PreK classroom. After teaching many children for 29 years this is a great way to garden. I teach work ” smarter instead of harder”. This plan is exactly that !!!!!!!! Excellent job to the planner! πŸ™‚

  • I want the plans. Love to garden but cannot die to back problems. And cannot buy due being on a limited budget. Really need these plans! Thank You

  • Some of the things I love most about Spring is everything begins to turn green, it’s a time of renewal and the Earth smells so fresh. . .new beginnings.

I have never tried my hand at raised bed gardening, but would love to try! Thank you for taking the time to share such a great message to all!

  • Rae

    Birds, butterflies, and blossoms!

  • Spring means a fresh start and plan once again for a bountiful veggie garden, hopefully!

  • Finally being able to walk around and appreciate our new yard!

  • i love spring because it is so joyous to be outside working in the soil after the dreariness of winter!

  • Oh wow??? What I love most about spring is…the warmer sun, planting my seeds indoors, clearing and prepping my garden, planting my hanging baskets, taking the kids to the park, putting the coats away, well…everything. I hybernate all winter do this is my season to come back to life. Love it.

  • I want the plans…..this would make me want to start gardening again; which I miss doing.

  • Spring always reminds me of being a child again. Apples on the teacher’s desk, fresh smells of melting snow letting flowers peek their heads up through the ground. My best memories are all the gardens filled with growing vegetables soon to be canned or eaten fresh off the stock. Now with my new fixer-upper I purchased back in Nov. All that remains is putting in my colorful, dream vegetable garden…

  • I would love to have the plans. We live in Eastern Washington and moved my parents (ages 87 and 91) in with us 16 months ago. My Dad & I both have diabetes, so we are trying to eat healthier and grow part of our produce. My husband built me one “raised bed which I am grateful for. It isn’t really raised, but just built on the ground and is filled with soil to contain it since I don’t have much room available. I would love to have the plans so we can grow more produce to eat better. My mom would love to help me in the garden, but cannot bend over for any length of time. This would be perfect for us for more than one reason.

  • The birds! The bees! The sunshine in my face!

  • Would love to have the plans for my disabled brother, he loves to grow vegetables, but unable to work in a garden. This would be perfect for him to feel like he is contributing and give him a feeling of accomplishment. Also, great for me, due to arthritis, difficult to handle the chores associated with gardening. Would also help on the grocery bill each month. Thank you. I love spring !!

  • I am in a wheelchair and would love your plans!!!! I love spring because I can begin to get out of the house and work with the plants.

  • I want the plans. I have been looking for plans like these for my dad to build for me. I live in the Arizona desert and have to have my plants above ground. And would help me to get outside a little more since I am pretty much home bound due to problems walking,kneeling and such. Thanks for sharing.

  • We are so excited to start a garden with our kids at our new home!

  • What I love about spring is the renewal, seeing everything coming back to life, an entire new cycle of life. I would love the plans! We live in an urban area & I am determined to grow a full garden in our city yard.

  • I love to see spring come, because I have seasonal depression in the fall and winter months, I love to be able to finally get outside and enjoy what life has to offer this time of year. Birds everywhere, singing ,hummingbiords starting to show up at my feeders.
    I would love to have these plans. I have actually thought about trying to make some above ground gardens this year. I have Fibromyalgia and my health got so bad 3 years ago that I had to give up working after 35 years.It is very hard for me to get down on the ground level, or constantly bend over tending a garden, so having some that I could start gardening again with plants within easy reach would be just what I need.

  • Love this idea. Would LOVE the plans to build my own. Awesome

  • My favorite thing about spring is when you have that day where you feel the warmth of the sun again after winters cold breezes. Everything starts to grow, color returns to the dormant and all the winter coats are shed to enjoy all the outdoor activities. To all best wishes to your spring gardening; have fun and beautiful and or tasty harvests.

  • I want the plans πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

  • like the flowers and smells of spring I would like the plans

  • I love seeing the earth wake up, and so fast, after the long, hard winters! There are so many beautiful colors that surprise me every year, and some new vegetation surprises that animals “planted” the year before! Betsy

  • Spring brings back memories of my childhood and the anticipation I had for spring to arrive. I lived in Northern British Columbia, Canada. Winter temperatures back then could go as low as 40 below zero fairly often, and the snow, boy, could it get deep. While I enjoyed winter (for a while anyway), I was so ready for it to warm up and for life to reappear! Walking about a mile to and from school each day would find me crunching through the frozen icy puddles on the side of the road. In the afternoon we would build small snow dams on the side of the road and in the morning on the way to school we crunched through the dammed up puddles we had made. The farms we passed would be empty except for the pregnant animals one day and bursting with the bleats and baby noises the next. It was so exciting! The crocus would pop up in the snow at the same time, reminding us that there was more plants and flowers to follow soon. But most of all, I was always excited because my birthday was in the middle of April and as a child I always looked forward to them. The days were warming up and the daylight lasting a bit longer each day. The air was so fresh and clean smelling with the hint of warmer days on the horizon. Today as spring approaches, I am once more taken back to the days of my youth. Spring is definitely my favorite time of the year!

  • What’s not to like about Spring! Love the longer days and the warmer weather.

  • I’d love the plans! Our soil is such difficult clay. My husband and I were just talking about trying raised beds this year. This would be great to win!

  • I love looking at everybody’s gardens and planning my own! Spring means being outside with my grandkids and teaching them how fun it is to “grow your own”! I’d love to win plans from you! Thanks!

  • I love Spring because the warmth makes my arthritis more bearable and lifts my spirits! I makes me feel like seed ready to poke my head out the door and grow!

  • S pring P roduces R efreshing I ntense N ew G rowth! That’s what I

  • S pring P roduces R efreshing I ntense N ew G rowth! That’s what I

  • S pring P roduces R efreshing I ntense N ew G rowth! That’s what I love about SPRING!

  • Spring is already here in Arizona! I am new at gardening, and I need lots of help.
    Love your raised garden ideas!

  • I love watching the earth renew it’s self awakening after a long winter nap.God at his best. Spring.
    I’m in awe every spring.

  • Sue

    i want the plans – love getting my hands back in the dirt and the renewal of life each spring!

  • i want the plans! I love the new growth spring brings.

  • I love to garden but have never had luck with vegetables, last year I tried a rain gutter garden for vegetables but it was not a success. I’d love to try a raised bed garden but they seem expensive to build. Your design looks economic since it’s up on legs.

  • i want the plans:)

  • Message

  • I want the plans. I love the anticipation of the first iris blooming in my garden.

  • How do I love spring? Let me count the ways! I begin thinking of spring as soon as it’s too cold to go outside in the fall! Luckily I live in the south! When nature puts her green on and the nurseries fill with blooms and my forsythia pops out I’m on cloud 9!
    We moved about a year and a half ago and I now have room for a garden. Yay! First attempt was a bust! I’ve finally convinced my husband that raised beds are the way to go! I have scoured the Internet and pinterest for ideas. So glad I found yours! Hope I win a set of plans! Great website!!!

  • You have some amazing posts! I love the trellis idea that you have for all of your plants. We are a military family that moves, and this will be another spring that I am rebuilding our garden in a new location. Your beds look like something that we could take with us to another location. I used raised beds in our last area, but we were not able to reuse them.

  • I want the plan. Spring time to me is about getting my garden going when I can (I have bad knees) and planting new flowers, cleaning my yard making it look good after dweary wnter. Working on new outdoor projects. My spring this year is packed full of ideas in which I can accomplish them all. This will be the first year WS get to spend time with our only 9 month old grandson. It is going g to be a great summer,

  • I love how fresh everything smells.
