I ordered 6 slate gray 6 in one tall planters, some how I got a cream colored one, irritated at first, now I like the “diversity”.
Sara S.
Went together beautifully! I bought four to get my vegetable garden going. I'm tall so the height is really going to save my back come spring. I'm very pleased with the quality and customer service is top notch.
Leigh S.
Easy to assemble and looks beautiful.
Jericho L.
Finally put together my birdies, after several emails from epicgardening, quite easy to assemble! I prepped the ground with landscape fabric of course, then, laid some old pavers I had, someone tipped me on this to prevent ground squirrels from digging underneath to steal produce! My handy gardener delivered some oraganic mulch to fill in the bed, saved me from several trips to buy soil mulch etc, then it’s time to plant. Et Voila! Of course I’ve planted more stuff from this initial picture!
Alan P.
The first three beds went up like a charm. Filled them back in September and they are all ready for the 2022 growing season (see pic). This last bed I ordered will have to wait two or three months before assembly. The conditions outside are not quite conducive for assembly and filling (four inches of snow on the ground and current temp of negative 15F). Thank you so much for all the work you have done to get these to us in spite of the cargo shipping issues.
Looking forward to our first planting and harvest!
Alan.
Timothy A.
Its' winter time right now too cold to put it together.
Thalia D.
I've begun to plan my garden and each month a hope to purchase a Birdie garden bed. I am sure that I will be happy with the results. I follow Epic Gardening to learn more about techniques and tips. Great videos!
Susan F.
We love Birdies Beds! We have several now and still want more!
This is our thornless blackberry’s new home
Ellen T.
filled it will cut up branches from an oak tree and mulch scraped up from the yard. Topped with good garden soil and planted.
Lori B.
Replacing wood beds that have been in place for several years. Looking forward to having taller beds to avoid bending over. Like the neat appearance. They were easily installed and we were able to fit them over the previous beds by just digging the layout over the old beds.
Lori R.
Thus a nice sturdy garden bed that will obviously last for years.
Dale P.
This is the regular 6 in 1. We are using them as. Pen for our giant turtle. Awesome beds.
Jake H.
I love this bed! These things are manufactured so well and are so sturdy. The height is a game changer for your back and for keeping pests away. My in-ground bed has all kinds of problems with cabbage moths that my Birdies raised beds amazingly don't seem to have. I have both of my Birdies beds set up as hugelkultur beds, and their rigid sides handle all that heavy, oddly shaped wood and organic matter without any difficulty, bending, or bowing. I would absolutely recommend them to a friend or anyone wanting to do gardening where they don't have to bend over the whole time. And to boot, they're lovely looking!
Nicola L.
Just the beginning we will see how this goes
Robin M.
We've set up 7 of these beds and love that they're at a height that allows us to do more in the garden, for longer! Beautiful color that looks nice enough to be a part of our landscape, without taking it over.
Eric B.
The beds are great. I was able to install one of three already and daughter and wife are so excited for next years growing season. They both want to help with the garden now that we have tall beds.
Monica W.
This are amazing! I built these on my own- super easy! An extra set of hands will make it go faster.The box even fit in my Smart car. I have a set of a different brand I got at the home depot, the Birdie's quality blows it away! The fit of the panels are so much better, better quality hardware, modular option are great. I love the slate color cannot wait to see what it will look like with the color of the plants and flowers.
I have 2 more 8-1 beds I just put together and plan on ordering 2 beds more to complete the garden.
Customer service at Epic Gardening is fantastic! Thanks Kris! My 1st bed was missing 2 bolts- they sent me a bag of hardware right way. The 2nd had an extra corner piece that I am returning.
I just built 2 8-1 Original beds today. The directions were different than the ones I previous had from the 6-1 Tall and thru me off a bit with the measurements on the diagram. I laid out the pieces on the ground remeasured and the info from the website was right and matched my original plans. The 8-1's did not come with the little wrench tool the 6-1 Tall's had.
I am very satisfied with my purchase and would recommend Birdie's products and Epic Gardening's service.
Maisha T.
Love this bed! Prepared it yesterday for Spring 2022 planting. It is extremely lightweight, easy to put together and very study when filling and it complements the colors of the house. I can’t wait to use it. I will be ordering another!
Arnetta A.
I’m sorry I haven’t assembled it yet.
Richard E.
1st time gardeners and excited to try these raised beds. They're easy to put together... just lots of screws. Glad they supplied plenty of extras in case we lost some.
Now the fun starts with filling them and getting them ready for planting.
We're definitely going to buy some more.
James F.
Best metal raised beds, bar none. This is my 5th Birdie's beds, and don't want to use any other brand. My originals are over 7 yrs old, and show zero wear. Easy to assemble, keep their good looks, and help me grow veggies....what's not to like?
Donald J.
went together well like the look and the height alows me to work on it without getting down on my knees
Timothy A.
I have it put together and full of soil just waiting for spring to start.
Patricia P.
Just tighten the last screw! So far love this large sturdy container. It will make a perfect addition to my container garden. Definitely will purchase more.
Thanks!
Kathryn G.
We will be adding 1 more 6-in-1 to our group. We are implementing hugelkulture so are in the process of preparing these Birdies for Spring planting. So excited to finally have them in place!
Judith W.
Excellent customer service, gorgeous product! Thank you!!
Alex S.
Fall garden in Arizona desert. Birdies are easy to put up and make gardening very enjoyable and fun!
Rita P.
After placing my order, I Had to wait a really long time to receive it. So I was unable to try it out this growing season. I look forward to using it next Spring. Love the look and it was easy to assemble.
Will L.
We love the Birdy- Keep up the good work Kevin
Karen G.
The photo shows my first bin, which has produced many peppers! The one I recently bought is beige, because I forgot to take the time to pick the correct color! The hugelkulture (spelling?) method of filling the bin worked well, although the soil sank about six inches! I have loaded the new bin up the same way, but won’t add new potting soil until spring, when I am ready to plant!

Phase 4, raised beds, “American Philosophic.”
After ordering our Birdies, (https://shop.epicgardening.com) raised beds in May, they finally arrived mid October, (I guess there IS a supply chain bottleneck) we have finally put 5 of them together. The dead trees/shrubs from last year’s 7° below zero weather was cleared and has now turned into #Hügelkultur. We have replaced the dead with new life. Fayetteville has a compost facility that sells it’s black gold at around $25 per scoop. It is now just a matter of weeks before we can start feeding ourselves, friends and strangers. That’s the plan anywho. The fact remains, the more gardening we all try, the more food prices will drop. It is one way we can win, I think. It’s healthier in that we know what we are eating, it’s good exercise, good for the environment and our mental resolve.

Great quality, attractive, and easily assembled. Now I just need to wait for spring to arrive.
Randall C.
I love my Birdies Beds. They make it easy to get vertical variation in the garden.
Lauren S.
We bought four of the 6-in-1 birdies bed and absolutely love them. They’re sturdy, well made, and the height is fantastic. Will be buying more in the future.
Judy C.
Obviously my butternut squash plant loves his new home in a raised bed. The other squash that I planted in the ground isn't even ankle high and has only produced one sad flower all season.
Jacob H.
I love my Birdies bed! Fantastic piece of equipment. I love how tall the bed is and the quality of the materials.
Bobby J.
New to gardening so still learning. Jazzed to get my first Birdie!
Thanks,

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!
D. West
Hilda M.
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.
colleen i.
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.
Karen G.
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.
Irving F.
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.
angelcrownns@gmail.com C.
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.
