Product Overview
EarthMark metal raised garden beds are a perfect blend of style and function. Our raised beds are made from galvanized steel that will not warp, crack, or rot and can be recycled at the end of their service life. Our beds come in Low (10 in.) or High (17 in.) sidewalls to accommodate different types of plants. EarthMark beds have been designed with ergonomics in mind, 22 in. beds provide single-sided access, and are ideal for placement against a wall or can be used to form a privacy wall or boarder. 40 in. wide beds provide 2-sided access without needing to step in the bed, keeping the soil loose and eliminating the need to till the soil each year. You will be amazed at the added productivity, accessibility and convenience of growing more with less soil and space. All sizes can be extended by 36 in. increments using our extension kits (sold separately) so the possibilities are limitless. Raised bed gardening provides proper soil drainage and retains warmth for strong root development for improved plant health and yield. These beds are simple to assemble: prepare your site; secure the sides to the corner brackets with 6 bolts per corner and they are ready for soil and plants. EarthMark planters and beds make estate quality gardens easy and affordable for all.

Asked by TexasTerri June 12, 20191
AnswerIt doesn't get REALLY hot, but the soil heats up more than it would in a plastic or wood container. That meant early sprouting and fruiting for my tomatoes and peppers. I have the 76" one and I think it called for 30 cubic feet of soil. The cut down on the cost, I filled the bottom half with less expensive in-ground soil, then the top half with potting soil.
will it hold corn plants?
Asked by ranch2019 April 23, 20191
AnswerYes, it holds corn plants.

I bought 4 of these in November 2016 and installed them in spring of 2017. I used them as intended, but they are all rusting, disintegrating and full of holes. I thought having galvanized metal raised beds meant they'd last longer than wood and would be worth the extra cost. I was wrong. I should have built my own out of redwood. These are garbage.

Love them, just wish they were not so easy to dent
I put 6 of these in my yard. 2 were from elswhere as HD went out of stock. I used 16’ x 52” cattle panels as trellises between them and they are gorgeous and easy to assemble and install however i knicked one with a garden post and it dented it pretty good. Not surprised by that one. But later when mowing hardly touch one with front tire of push mower and it dented. Wish metal was a little heavier guage is all. Just be aware and be mindfully careful of this.

Nice planter- modern and clean looking, easy to assemble, and seems sturdy. A little on the pricey side if you want to do a large amount of them, but I've received a lot of complaints on mine!

Great product! It assembled without too much trouble and looks great in my garden.
It turns out the 76" unit is really the 40" unit plus an extension pack, which wasn't what I expected and added a step to the assembly process. This was a little bit tricky because the support bars for the center of the unit are very narrow, which limits the available space for tightening the nuts and bolts. The first one I assembled took about 30 minutes (both because I was unfamiliar with the instructions and because I accidentally put two of the corner pieces on upside down and had to redo it), but I was faster at the ones I assembled after that.
Only a few weeks after assembly, I have the best-looking vegetables I've had in a long time. The 22" depth makes a big difference in the root structure for tomatoes, squash, and eggplants, and they've started growing more quickly and vigorously than I've seen in my previous raised-bed gardens. I'm optimistic about having a great crop of herbs and vegetables this summer!

I bought two of these planters, one with an extension, along with a shorter, wider version "Bajo". The planters are in my front yard and nearly every day someone asks "Where did you get those? They look great!"
The landscaper put them together and it didn't take very long although it helps to have another pair of hands helping.

Unfortunately, I ordered the wrong size. I did return this item and ordered the right size - 76"w x 22"d x17" h, with a 36" w extension. I love this raised bed planter - it's easy to assemble and looks great in the front yard where neighbors ask me daily "Where did you get that galvanized planter?"
