A TASTY RAILWAY SLEEPER RAISED BED FOR EVERY CLASS!

School is a time to grow and learn about the world, and what more fulfilling way is there than growing vegetables in raised beds made from railway sleepers. Planting the seeds and seeing them sprout and come into flower. Harvesting the produce and eating the tasty fruit. A wonderful lesson in life, that takes place before your very eyes (and stomach!) Thanks to Greasley Property Services for building them!

GARRY'S LIQUID REFRESHMENT HELPS SUCCESSFUL RAISED BED PROJECT WITH NEW PINE RAILWAY SLEEPERS

They are, as you say, simple to assemble like screwing together big wooden blocks. Nonetheless 3600mm long pine railway sleepers are still hefty timbers to lift, and deserving of the refreshment I see on the top of the finished raised bed!
