Started my long-awaited raised garden project this year and it's been a 100% positive experience. Excellent quality gardens that look great and produce exciting results, even though I started late. I followed multiple video guides from Kevin so that helped tremendously. A lot of experimentation this year to help make decisions for the next years. These beds get my two (green) thumbs-up!
Mary Ann S.
I'm still waiting for my order....
Joana B.
The height of this bed is perfect for keeping the bunnies, ground hog, and other little creatures away. The quality of the galvanized steel is also top quality. I love these raised beds, currently have 3 of them.
Ann B.
It was very easy to put together. I am filling it with “homemade” potting soil which will take a while but it is too hot to plant at the moment here in the desert! It will be perfect for winter vegetables.
Eric M.
Love this raised garden bed. Takes some time to put in all the screws but once you do you won’t regret it !! We got two and looks amazing in our yard. Thank you! Worth the wait
DINA W.
I am so grateful for these Birdie brand garden beds. They were easy to assemble and are allowing me to do something I absolutely love! Thank you Epic Gardening and Birdie Raised Beds!

It wasn’t that hard to put together and when I got it all done I was pretty thrilled at how it looks and how it makes the plants waste high. It’s keeping all the little animals away which thrills me. I don’t know about raccoons though :-) great product.
Brenetta D.
Took forever to get here but it's a great addition.
Dawn M.
Once I got the idea of how to put it together it did not take long. I filled the bed as Kevin suggested. I have not had time to plant it yet but I have put the straw and amended the soil with blood and bone meal.

Tall bed was easy to put together and so easy to garden in not that it's planted. It took a lot of material to fill to planting level, but Epic videos showed how to manage that! Thank you!
JANET R.
It was easy to assemble and works a treat. No more bending to tend the veggies!!
Evan P.
Love the beds, can't wait to get more.
Shirley M.
Our children gave us our first planter for Christmas, and we ordered a second one. We just finished putting the dirt in the second. We love the planters, so easy to care for the plants, and almost zero pest problems. A great idea, and perfect for our condo yard.

I loaded some of my neighbor’s branches into the bottom ( after lining the bottom and a bit on the sides, and using gaff tape to hold the fabric stationary while I dumped things inside.) I had bags of grass clippings, so I spread two on top of the branches. Next was a few wheelbarrow loads of unfinished compost. I added 1.5 bags of cotton burr compost- I had no use for it, not realizing it was not recommended for containers. After that was several bags of potting soil. I had 13 green chili plants and this was their new home. I topped them off with the recommended wood shavings for animal bedding. The whole contents have settled, from the 2nd to the top rib to the 3rd, but the settling appears to be even. The bin was not hard to put together. It was hot out so I assembled the whole bin inside as much as I could. I did the 60” long format, and assembled two piece sections. I did two pairs of end pieces, and four sections of side pieces. Then I took all of them outside and sweated and finished. I hope to pass on my five gallon buckets to friends next year and get another bin!
Lisa R.
Well, its pretty simply actually; like many I'd wager, I serendipitously found Kevin's YouTube videos, and was thoroughly impressed with his knowledge and passion. Couple that with an attractive easy to assemble and use product like these raised beds, and you have a win win situation. I applaud Kevin's discipline and dedication to his craft. I will be buying more! Cheers, Lisa.

I love the 6 in 1 tall bed. It was easy to put together. I put drip irrigation into it and am growing 3 kinds of lettuce and kale. It will be much easier to harvest. I still have room for more beds in the future. Thanks Epic Gardening for carrying Birdies Beds.
Stephany S.
My husband and I bought these beds to replace some older wood ones that were only about a foot off the ground. We have made two orders through epic gardening over the last two years, first ordering 2 beds, then another 4 beds. We have enjoyed using these beds and find they come together easily, are sturdy, and look great. In this last order we had issues with some corners of our beds being bent from shipping as well as losing some of the hardware, but after contacting Kevin we were refunded our shipping costs and were able to bend them back without damage to the beds, this was especially important as we know how difficult it is to order these before they sell out! Overall, I definitely recommend these to any gardener
jonathan b.
Best raised I've had to date. I'm actually going to order two.
Easy to assemble, excellent height, and looks the part.
Ellen S.
I waited forever, but it was well worth it!!!
LISA Z.
This garden is going strong. I bought the 6 in 1 and was able to put it together myself (female, 52 years young). I had no trouble at all. I picked a nice breezy day and had it completed in just under 2 hours. I filled it with lots of old branches and twigs that I had been storing beside the house and then dumped in the compost, vermiculite, and peat moss. That's salt hay around the veggies to help keep in the moisture. No more bending over to pick radishes or carrots. Thank you so much Epic gardening!
Zach K.
Very happy with my raised garden bed. Especially the height, since I’m tall too.
Marissa N.
Love my new beds! On is my strawberry patch and the other will be for squash in the fall. Keeps my dog, and other critters, out of my garden and they look beautiful!
Zema C.
Takes a lot to fill the 6’ tall beds. I underestimated the dirt I would need. I did fill with wood and wood materials to about 15” from the top. Teenagers put them together for a donation to their summer camp. I still need a bit more dirt before planting, but I hope to get the plants in soon. The beds look great in my yard.
John C.
I just redid my whole yard And it makes my yard way better than what it is. everyone that sees it says it's awesome. Thank you for all that you do..
Sally L.
Can't wait to see how my veggies and raspberries grow.
Virginel B.
It is the perfect height. Will be planting in it today. Will send pictures in the future.
Julie H.
My husband had no trouble putting the beds together once we had the correct sequence for the end pieces. We used our own tools as the wrench in the kit is inadequate. Then the magic happened! These beds are beautiful, durable, and fit well into the area of our yard dedicated to edibles. Thank you for a wonderful product and the YouTube videos that cover every aspect of constructing and using the Birdie beds. We have already recommended them to others!
Tina C.
I just received the last 3 beds (11 total). I absolutely love them!!! I have room for 4 more, but have to wait until next year. They were easy to put together, look terrific and I just love them!!
William T.
Wife loves them no bending down. Easy on the back.
Merrie G.
Second order of birdies beds and I love the height I chose and ability to define a space with these beds. Still deciding on the perfect crop for second bed, but first bed has radishes planted that now the bunnies can’t reach. Great quality beds!
Lynda C.
I love these beds!!!! I needed tall beds (due to a back injury). They are the perfect height for me to work in, without hurting. I wish I could post all the pics of the whole process. From delivery (6 birdie boxes), putting them together, layering the inside with broken down cardboard boxes, logs, limbs, etc, then soil & compost, building pvc pipe frames (for green housing and trellis lines)(yes, we painted them to match my GreenStalk), to covering them with plastic so my babies don’t die in the cold. It’s still hitting the 30’s here in the Sierra Foothills. I’m happy to say that bed number 7 has been ordered. These beds are easy to put together (my husband and I did it together). They are sturdy. They are lovely to look at it. The height is amazing. I would and have recommended them to my friends.
Roy S.
I am 81 years old and it is wonderful not to bend over so much. I plan on ordering some more.
Regards Roy
Sharon M.
Great bed for tomatoes. Love it. I'm and old lady so can't bend so much anymore and this is perfect for me. I love it, love the color of it, the convenience of it and everything. Going to order another one. I live in AZ and the soil here is awful, only good for cactus and all forms of cactus. So this kind of container is wonderful. Have 14 tomatoes plants in it now but need another so I can put my veggies in it. Thank you so much.
Mister S.
We live in Phoenix, AZ and the ground is not that usable for growing a garden. These Birdies are perfect!! We filled them halfway with logs, and then added good dirt and compost for the planting. We are still in the process of establishing our garden, with several more Birdies to put together and plant. We are also putting in a drip system as we are coming up to our warm (hot) summer. The Birdies are very easy to put together and move around so you can find your garden spot. We actually have more on order. Thanks Kevin for being a Birdie sponsor and for all your great videos.
Arturo V.
We were thrilled to receive these in March, just in time for Pacific NW garden prep. It took 2 of us to figure out how to assemble the first one, then I was able to do the 2nd on on my own, with the help of some clamps and patience. They look beautiful and sturdy, placed on south side of house—who says you can’t grow tomatoes in Seattle? Thanks for great customer service and speedier than anticipated delivery.
Lucas E.
Love these things, bought two! super durable, makes gardening easy on the back and they look so cool. Two thumbs up.
John B.
I bought twelve, Tall 6-in-1 Metal Raised Garden Beds and I’m very pleased with the product. One of the boxes was slightly damaged in shipping and I was worried that the planter was damaged. I called and reached someone immediately who was able to address my concerns. It turned out that the planter wasn’t damaged and appreciate the prompt customer service. All of the metal has a plastic film on the outside surface which products it from scratches during shipment. Assembly is easy and straight forward with the provided wrench and a screwdriver. There is an instruction page which tells you to assemble the sides first then the corners. I’m looking forward to planting seeds come spring.
Violet A.
Love them! I am excited to use them!
Deborah S.
Ordering a lot more of these. After my stroke, bending is hard. So the height of the tall bed is perfect. So excited to have a yard full of these!♥️
Bob T.
great product! great experience!
Dennis S.
I love it, The bed is extremely thick. I have another bed I got for about the same price and the quality isn't their. I will be replacing it with a birdies bed in the fall. Over time I will convert all my beds over to the Birdies beds. I just wish their were larger size options. I got the 6 in one size I though it was going to be bigger than it was. However I was still very pleased it worked better in the space I needed it for had it been bigger it wouldn't have worked out as I had planned. I learned about these beds from Mark and his YouTube channel Self sufficient me. I only wish I could get the size he uses.
Over all I am completely happy with the product and I can not wait to get some more
Jack H.
Love my Birdie Raised Bed!!!
Brian S.
Not hard to assemble but was unable to to keep panels lined up flush. Or didn't think about doing that while assembling. It takes a lot of fill !! :) Looking good. thanks
Stephen M.
I really like the height of this bed, I don’t have to squat or bend over too far which is a nice change. Filling the bottom half with wood was a great cost saving tip on soil. Now comes the fun part .
David W.
The best! I have put together several raised garden beds, but none can compare to the quality of Birdies garden beds. When I saw them on your YouTube channel and again on Self Sufficient Me's YouTube channel, I knew I had to get one. Now I wish all my beds were Birdies beds!
Merrie G.
Found the raised beds that matched my carport. Couldn’t be happier. They tie the whole thing together and are a wonderful way to keep the rabbits away from my strawberries because of their height. Love the configurable nature of the beds as well. Thank you.
Alicia P.
I absolutely love these beds, I have installed and 2 more to go!!!
ELlen T.
It is beautiful, was easy to assemble and much easier to reach.
Florida is a very sandy, and we are within 1/2 mile of the bay. Dig down just a little and there's white sugar sand.
We filled the garden bed 3/4 with a Malabar Chestnut tree that was too close to the house, then old wood chips I had spread over the side yard and topped off with about a 1/2 foot of very good potting soil with amendments. .
it is growing good.
Lessette M.
I love it I'm preparing it for spring.
Kyle C.
One season in and these beds are amazing
BETH W.
These are the second and third beds that we have purchases from Kevin at Epic Gardening. We are thrilled with them. They are easy to put together and look lovely. We do have a huge 1 acre garden all with raised beds except for the fruit trees and roses. We got our three after we had started our summer gardening.
In the shorter of the two beds currently are shallots that can be planted in the fall and harvested in late spring. The large bed has not been planted but we are thinking about carrots or parsnips. We live in the mountains in Northern California and do get snow thus the beds will be planted in the spring.
Our first bed is the tall round Birdies bed, we did planted it with Cauliflower for the fall but they were taken down by cut worms. Next year will will be prepared.
We will be adding to our garden with more Birdies Beds from Kevin who is wonderful to work with.

I love my birdies bed. Easy to maintain . I grew many veggies this winter in this raised awesome bed
Barbara K.
Best Winter project - putting these together. SO much easier, than I expected - in the comfort of my nice warm house. It's January in Zone 7B - so not quite ready for garden time yet - but I will be ready shortly.
So happy with the solid panels, beautiful color and depth of these tall ones. I bought 2 of them, and will be buying 2 more (for now). Besides 'looking pretty', I'm REALLY excited about working with the height of these, and not bending down. The rest of my raised beds are wood, and are already looking pretty sad after 2 winters.
Several friends have bought these as well, with nothing but rave reviews.
Angy S.
These beds are absolutely wonderful. My new garden is starting to take shape and I only need a couple of more to get it ready for the coming season. Thank you so so much for bringing these to United States.
Ivan S.
These beds are simply great! The picture shows a mid season 2020 picture of the 6-in-1 beds bought at the end of 2019. So the latest buy of 4 beds go to continue the rows of these beds against the back fence. The multiple configurations possible allow either these narrow arrangements or a squarer bed (the fifth bed that I ordered, put elsewhere in the veggie patch) depending on one's plans. We bought some of the first beds that Kevin sold, and they have no sign of corrosion and thus are lasting longer than the cedar raised beds that I had made before. With the height of these beds (especially the waist-high ones), the beds are very economical, and without the hassle of trying to find materials to make an equivalent yourself. I just wish that FedEx would manage to deliver them efficiently and not send half of my order through my state and on to the East coast and then back again, arriving a week later than the first half of the order (not Epic Gardening's fault).
Our next buy for the end of 2021 will be the 8-in-1 original beds: more growing space without trying to work clay soil into good condition!
PAMELA P.
I would love to leave a photo but it's wintertime in Michigan!!
Birdies beds are the best!!
Venus L.
This is the 8 in 1 with wood as the base per Kevin’s advice. This saved a TON of money on soil. When putting the bed together I could not get the braces to work. I sent Kevin a note and in less than 24hours he responded and I was back up and running. Great product and customer service.
Migell A.
We have a large bunny population on our property and I’m hoping they won’t get into these beds.
Jordan S.
This is the second time we have purchased birdies beds. They are very well built and easy to put together. I look forward to using them for many years!
Sarah S.
So far so good. Our two six foot long raised beds have arrived and are assembled. It will take some time before we can plant in them next spring.
Gabriel A.
At first I thought 6 in 1 would be on the smaller size but it was perfect and fit great and was a good addition to our front yard/garden. Super easy to build and move and study.
Kim B.
I love my Birdie Beds! They are so easy to assemble and look so great in the yard. The tall beds are so nice to work with and east to fill up, using Hugelkultur. I also have the tall round bed. Ordering has been so easy, as well.
Noreen B.
Super easy to assemble, first one took another 15 minutes. The second one took half that. Easy to carry to the garden from the assembly site. I simply love the color. We’ve ordered 3 more... to start.
Kathryn C.
I purchased both the Tall 6-in-1 and this Original 6-in-One. I love them so much I have decided to add more of them to my garden. Assembly was easy, and they look beautiful in the yard!
Fred L.
Love this addition to my garden I haven’t had a chance to use this season. I had some old raised beds that were already planted. They will be taken down this winter and replaced with Birdies beds.
Chris t.
Soooo pretty, like an outdoor work of art! Simple to put together, but it takes a little patience as there's 100 little screws. I'm not tall, but still enjoy the height. Cant wait to see my first harvest!!! Totally worth it!
Gary C.
love the birdie beds. Kevin and Lauren have provided superior customer service, I really appreciate their dedication to keeping their customers happy .
Now if they would just come up and help me put the rest of the beds together I would be in 7th heaven!!!!(just Kidding)
Gary.
Joseph L.
We purchased two of these...made one large bin and a smaller bin. Came out great!
Jeff B.
Just installed my first two tall birdies beds. Won’t plant in them until the spring but looking forward to putting them to use.
Kimberlee T.
I’ve been looking forward to getting my tubs to start my garden. These did not disappoint! They were easy to put together, just a lot of tightening bolts, and very well made and strong. I got the tall tubs so it took a lot of shrubbery to fill before I could add my soul, but it was so worth buying them. I don’t have to bend over and it’s easy to plant without the back ache. I love them so much that I bought two more!
Lynn Anthony L.
Hey Kevin, thank you for the packet of seeds. Im looking forward to planting them next year. I love the new raised bed. It was so easy to install and like that it was waist high.
KIMBERLY T.
I have not assembled my raised bed, too late in the season. I will do this next spring. Plan on filling it with 2/3 tree/plant debris and 1/3 compost and good bed soil. Very excited to get this bed up and growing!!! Thank you!!
Michelle C.
Love the look of these beds. Matches our home perfectly, I may even try to put some in the front yard as the HOA might be ok since they match so well and are so nice looking
Jerome D K.
Easy to put together ( though it took some time). Looks great, is solid. Looking forward to growing in it this coming growing season.
Thao S.
We finally finished installing our 6-in-1 Tall raised beds.
dijon b.
Love them think i need one more
Carol J.
My 8th raised bed is ready for strawberries next spring. I couldn’t be any happier with the Birdies Beds. They are high quality, versatile and functional. I’m already trying to figure out how to expand my garden so I can add more!
Michael C.
These beds simply exude quality! Took some time to put together with all the nuts and bolts but the end product was well worth it (and worth the few months long pandemic wait)!
Michelle Y.
I have yet to fill the bed but putting it together is a dream! In fact, because of it's ease of building, I have ordered a second bed. I'm an older woman and can't do a lot of heavy lifting so these beds are perfect for me. Thank you for providing them.
Sari S.
My new 6-in-1 beds fit perfectly into a sunny corner that I'm clearing and reclaiming! It took me a few days to layer using the Hugelkultur method: logs, then chips then soil. I am so happy that I no longer have to garden on the ground anymore! I plan on getting at least 2 more beds!
Tomoko S.
It was an extravagant purchase for me and won't be buying more. But I wish I could 'cause I love it. I was able to put it together all by my 61yo mobile challenged self! I trust Kevin's recommendations
Eva C.
Love my new raised bed. It is the right height for working in it without bending my back. I love it so much I am buying another one!
Alyson M.
This is my second birdie bed. I love it and Kevin is great!
Paul R.
The bed came sooner than Kevin’s video predicted. Even though I haven’t been able to set it up yet due to it being Fall in Michigan, I’m preparing for a spring planting and quite excited. Thanks again! Love your work.
Mina J.
I ordered 3 raised birds from Epic Gardner. What an experience. They are beautiful, sturdy, and easy to assemble. I previously replaced 4 raised beds using Gardner's Supply Cedar raised beds. I wish I knew about these raised beds before purchasing the cedar ones. I have several raised beds and more purchases will follow! I am now anxiously waiting for the availability of the tree planters, many to buy! I have extremely hard clay soil and my fruit trees are struggling. These planters are going to be life savers. Thank you Kevin for supporting and providing us with such great merchandise. Oh, and about pictures, Wait to see what I am doing with these raised beds! Pictures will be posted on Instagram as soon as I am finished with setting everything up. Thank you again Kevin.
Paul G.
Great construction, beautiful "industrial" design, and tall form factor will make the next decade of growing easier on my back!
Russ M.
I love it, would get more if I had more space left!
Lynne W.
Beautiful bed. Easy to put together and fill. I bought both the original and tall 6 in 1. They are both high quality and I believe will last a long time. I bought the tall thinking I needed the height, which will be easy to plant and work in, however the original height is very good and easier to fill with soil. The tall holds a lot of dirt.
Mark B.
Looks great and should last a long time.
Jeff G.
Looks great in my garden! Waiting for the next one to arrive. Still have time for some fall planting!
Jeanne C.
We put down gravel and gopher wire first, then put together the 2 thirty inch deep beds. With 2 people the work was quite easy. Once in place we did as you recommended - we filled the bottom half with logs and garden debris. Then added the dirt. Now begins the fun of planting! Can't wait!
Sophie H.
This Birdies bed was one of my many experiments this season. But unlike some of my other garden experiments this season, I am STOKED with the results! This bed is highly functional, super sturdy and industrial, and yet strikingly beautiful in person. If you are a small space gardener with room for only one bed — this is it! If space is no issue and you can accommodate any size bed — this is still it! This year, with the help of Epic Gardening’s online resources, I drastically scaled up my gardening operation (thanks Kevin)! I graduated from one flimsy wooden gardener’s supply bed, to constructing several cedar beds, filling dozens of grow bags with plants started from seed, and sprawling my operation across multiple sites (yes, I’ve had to start borrowing other people’s houses to garden at too haha)! I’m so impressed with this birdies bed that I’m currently re-imagining the layout of the garden pictured here to include more birdies beds around the periphery. Even though it was planted late in the season as a bit of an afterthought, the determinant tomatoes I planted in the birdies bed thrived! I’m looking forward to seeing soil temp differences between my other beds in the fall and winter seasons (zone 7). It came carefully packaged, assembly was simple, and it is holding up to the elements beautifully. The 30” height is an absolute DELIGHT for working, and I’m really looking forward to taking full advantage of the depth of this bed next season now that it has truly surpassed expectation. Happy gardening, friends!
Gordon S.
This is my second Tall 6-in-1 Metal Raised Garden Bed. They take a bit of time to put together, but they're so worth the effort. I also have a Round Tall Metal Raised Garden Bed. I'll be purchasing one more Round Tall when it becomes available for pre-order.
They look great in the backyard and our friends are jealous. Looking forward to Spring planting!
Erin B.
These beds are amazing. Built supper strong, I have no doubt they will last a lifetime. The extra height of the tall beds means no bending or awkward posture. We got hundreds of squash out of a single round bed. We started with 2, then got 3 more, and now ordering another 2 to complete the garden. Totally worth the money and wait. Order early to have in time for next spring planting.
Mary M.
It’s cold here now so I was setting it up the way I saw Kevin do it on the video. On utube
I love the size and the color.
Walter W.
Easy and perfect for my backyard!
