Gardening with Daddy Pete: Building a Beautiful Raised Bed - Ep 118 - February 5, 2026

Build a raised bed that lasts for years and makes Gardening simpler. In this episode of Daddy Pete’s Plant Pleaser®, Daddy Pete walks through smart raised bed planning, from the best width for easy reach (about 3.5 to 4 feet) to a practical height (12 to 18 inches) that supports more than just greens. You’ll learn how to pick the right spot for sun and drainage, what materials hold up best, and what to avoid when filling a bed (like cardboard layers or unknown yard debris). Daddy Pete also shares a budget-friendly approach to building soil layers, plus tips for adding trellises for cucumbers, beans, and other climbing Plant favorites.
