NEW Raised Bed Garden Design! 70×70 space 😲
This is it! I finally get to talk to you about my garden design. It took me a few weeks to design this space and I’m actually very proud of myself for getting this far. I’d love to hear your thoughts, so please share them below – I love to read all the suggestions.

🌳 ABOUT ME: Hi, my name is Daisy. I live in South TX – in a town close to Houston, TX. We are in Zone 9a. I am married and have 3 beautiful daughters. 2019 was my first year gardening and it was in a suburban area with a small backyard. I had a backyard high-density orchard with over 30 fruit trees and 11 raised beds we built Feb 2020 for our Vegetable Garden. Now we recently moved to a 3.5 acre lot where we are expanding our growing capacity and taking you on this journey with us. I hope we can learn together and I can inspire you to live a happier/healthier life! Keep Growing, Keep Smiling.

Im thankful seeing you again. Thanks for the inspiring video
You gave me a strong urge to pick up graphing paper and start designing. I don’t even have property 😂. I love your journey, thank you for sharing your progress. I say it every time, because that will be us in a few years and I want to be ready.
Build the fence around the raised bed garden. There are a multitude of ways to manufacture it to be less obvious. Personally, I would embrace it and make it a feature, rather than something that you wouldn't want to look at because it looked too utilitarian. Hanging baskets of flowers make all the difference in the world. Grow climbing vines like clematis, that you can train to go where you want. It's not just deer that devour your vegetables, you also have keep rabbits, pigs and armadillos from rooting around in there as well.
Don't worry about toxins leeching. It's a completely overblown concern. You can just make your beds out of pressure treated lumber and have it last a lot longer. The chemicals in current day pressure treated lumber are totally different to what they used to be. Painting one side of your lumber might make it warp faster, because of the water repelling qualities that are now unbalanced. Always use a "string line" to get straight lines, especially over the distance that you are working with.
Hello 👋🏾 Daisy! If the deer 🦌 are chewing up all of your garden, just chew up the deer 😂😂😂. Just kidding, but maybe not🤣! I’m loving the way that y’all are laying everything out. It’s going to be BEAUTIFUL! Your raised bed area of 70’x70’ is almost the size of the lot my 3,000 sq. ft. house is on…city living sucks 😫. I can’t wait to see the finished project. Stay blessed fam!

It's amazing to see your garden take shape
OMG Friend, your garden is looking great I can't wait to see it complete and full of good veggies, flowers and other thing that you will put in there. I'm soo happy for you and your family I know we will enjoy your garden with you. Take care and I see you in the next video. 🙂
I’m excited for you Daisy, you certainly don’t do things by halves 🤣 I think it’s really good you’re taking your time getting everything exactly right so you don’t wish you had done it differently. A huge project, compared to your last garden’s beds. Congrats on the new puppy too 😊
With a garden that large it might need to be designed to allow tractor access. I have mulch-dumping locations that are the size of my tractor's bucket. I won't/can't afford to pay myself to open bags of compost. Here we have access to bulk composted-poultry-litter or mushroom-compost, but I only buy leaf-mold b/c delivery prices are 75% higher than last year. Bulk delivery or bagged usually comes out to the same price but the time to spread it is different.
It’s gonna be huge! I can’t wait to see what you plant. I think the sizes are good. Might want to restrict the doggy door to exit only in case critters want to come in.❤️
If the dogs stay outside all the time, they will deter the deer. You may have to build a small fence to keep the dogs out of the garden. Deer are smart enough to know when the dogs are out or not. They can get pretty close to a fence with dogs, but if the dogs can get to all sides of the garden the deer will not jump over the fence. And a got a cat this year that really cut down on the squirrel pressure. He has not caught one yet but he sure keeps trying.
Loved to see the progress and I can't wait until it's complete so we can see you start planting next.
You have good ideas, but you are talking to much. Show the work more.
I am actually excited for the dream project of yours 😍😍😍
Your hard work is paying off!! Planning to reality is such a fun journey! Your gardens are going to be fabulous!! Love from NC!!
You could always use the black garden net . You can’t even see it from a distance and it is specifically made to keep deer out
Thank you for sharing how you designed your garden! I have been so curious how one goes about designing their garden and your use of the graph paper was awesome! I love it and I'll definitely be using this method in the future as well.
… Consider some cute… Creative scarecrow type things… On each corner… With the subtle movement that freaks out the critters… And keeps them away… My father always would hang aluminum pie pans on strings… That would scare off all the critters…?? LOL
I can’t wait to see it all come together.
So excited for you. Can’t wait to see when the soil goes in. You inspire me to think big. I love that the progress is coming along fast and I give you props for doing a lot of the labor.
