A Holzer Raised Bed
I use to think I knew what a raised bed was, then I read Sepp Holzer’s Permaculture. He talks about making 5 ft raised beds that have a 45 degree angle slope. The book is great, Sepp has a very unique view on how to interact with natural.
I would classify his approach almost as the lazy man’s garden. He doesn’t go out of his way to prevent animals and weeds and things he doesn’t want in his garden. Instead he focuses on making sure every inch is working with nature and not against it.
It’s really a complete book on permaculture, including livestock and growing mushrooms.
Below is an image I found on another website with a detailed description of how Sepp use’s permaculture.Or download a pdf article from Permaculture magazine about how to make a Hugelkultur Raised Bed
