Versatility: It’s the perfect starting point for whatever garden you’re imagining and can be made into five different shapes to hold everything from fresh veggies and herb patches to butterfly gardens.

7x More Corrosion- & Rust-Resistant Than Standard Metal Beds: Our 24-gauge, cold-rolled aluzinc steel is 7x more corrosion- and rust-resistant than the galvanized steel most beds use. No need to worry about it breaking down or needing to be replaced. This bed is built to last for decades of harvests.

100% Food-Safe Materials: We’re here to help your garden grow right. Ensuring you have safe and healthy soil for food production is priority number one.

Exclusive Epic Gardening Design: These beds were created by real gardeners. We designed and tested the beds for years before bringing them to you. (We still have the original prototype beds from 2007 that show minimal signs of rust and corrosion.) We trust them in our own gardens, so you know they get the job done right.

Q: Can I place the beds on hard surfaces such as concrete?

A: If you're placing your bed on pavers, concrete, tiles, a porch, or anything you don't want to stain, it’s better to add a bed liner or geotextile fabric. Go ahead and place your box in position, then put the fabric on the bottom of the bed from the inside. Run any excess fabric up each side and then fill your bed with soil. The fabric allows water to drain freely, but it keeps soil from messing up your floor. Optional: To really protect the surface, place thick builder's plastic down before putting your bed into position. Once the bed is filled, any excess plastic can be trimmed around the edge of the garden bed with an Exacto knife.

Q: Can I combine beds?

A: Yes, you can combine two beds together. We always recommend installing bracing bars when combining beds to prevent bowing due to soil pressure. For detailed instructions, check out growepic.co/bracinginfo.

Q: What are the benefits of raised bed gardening?

A: Raised bed gardening reduces pest pressures, elevates the garden to a more comfortable working level, and is a great way to guarantee you have quality soil to grow in. You’ll also have fewer weeds to deal with and an easier time clearing out any that pop up. Also, your soil doesn’t become compacted like an in-ground bed. It gives you better control over your gardening environment.

Q: What can I grow in my Raised Beds?

A: Pretty much anything. We’ve got some ideas to get you started, but really, the sky’s the limit.

Q: How long will these beds last?

A: All of our Birdies Beds are constructed from 24-gauge, cold-rolled steel with an aluminum-zinc (aluzinc) alloy coating. The aluzinc steel is up to 7x more rust-resistant and corrosion-resistant than standard galvanized metal. Like all iron-based metals, steel will rust eventually, but with proper care, these beds will last you 20+ years. You can improve the longevity of your beds by keeping your soil free-draining, within a 6-7 pH range, and not using fresh chicken manure.

Q: Are they safe to grow food in?

A: All the materials used are 100% food-safe and will not leach into your soil, allowing for safe, healthy food production. Our aluzinc steel raised beds are coated with a non-toxic, USDA-approved paint and the hardware supplied is food-grade stainless steel.

Q: Will the beds get too hot in summer or in hot climates?

A: No, they won’t. Compared to standard concrete and plastic beds (especially if made from a dark color or material) our metal raised beds will outperform all of them, maintaining even, cool soil temperatures. The superior

reflectivity of the aluzinc steel keeps most of the heat from ever passing into the soil. And, that bulk of soil in your bed will quickly absorb and spread the small amount of heat it gets from touching the stainless steel panels.

Q: Are the beds bottomless?

A: Yes, that means no drainage holes to drill, and the soil gets to touch the ground, so you end up with superior, microbe-rich soil and healthier plants.

Q: What is the thickness of your metal beds?

A: All Birdies Beds use 24-gauge, cold-rolled, Aluzinc-coated steel.

Q: Can the safety edging handle freezing temps?

A: Yes, the safety edging is UV-safe and designed to withstand both freezing and hot temperatures.
