the paces between the stakes for my new garden bed. I've decided to do raised beds, because the soil is very poor where I am. I'm going to create a series of beds; some stone and some wattle. I am so excited, I can't stand it. I'm going to cover the bottom with both wire mesh and weed barrier mat and build the beds up 12 inches from the ground. If I ever learn to post pics, I'll be sure and let you see the progression of my garden.
