[Cob] cob raised beds?Daveena T tauberd at comcast.netMon May 24 23:17:33 CDT 2004
I am interested in building raised beds out of something other than wood and I was wondering if cob could be an appropriate medium. I like the idea of being able to build beds in interesting shapes rather than just straight lines. I also like the possibility of building in little sitting areas or shrines. Would cob beds stand up to the constant contact with soil? Could I line them or finish them with something if the soil would be a problem? Would some kind of flashing be necessary? Any more ideas or examples of people who have done this? Thanks, DT in Portland, OR
