Albion Park, NSW

This bed involved an offset trellis to make the most of where the sun falls for part of the year.

Any parts of the bed that hitting shade from the tree will still be great for salad greens, onions, carrots, potatoes etc.

A long raised bed along a boundary is a smart way to use an Albion Park yard, and reading the sun carefully, as we did with the offset trellis here, means even a partly shaded run stays useful. Leafy greens, onions, carrots and potatoes all do well in the shadier sections.

With the reservoir keeping the whole bed watered, it stays productive across the seasons. Built from durable, food-safe timber, this self-watering raised vegetable bed is made to last. UrbanVeg builds raised garden beds across Albion Park and the Illawarra.
