“This is an indestructible waist high planter box that we hope will bring us to partial “vegetable independence” from the grocery store this season.
There has been a trend in the neighborhood towards planter boxes. I don’t fully understand why vegetables can’t just be grown in the ground like they did when we were kids, but I’m not about to buck this trend.
Modern vegetables require way more care and attention than the rough and tough vegetables of yesteryear.
The vegibox as built has final outer dimensions of: Length=72″, Width=21 3/4″, Height=11 3/4
The frame brings the top of the box to 31″ off the ground. After installation on concrete pavers, the top height will be about 32″ high which is about normal kitchen counter height. Bringing the planter up to waste height is a definite back saver as you can tend your veggie garden standing upright…”
