The brief
Raised beds for vegetables and cut flowers, close to the house and pleasant to walk through every day.
What we did
Oak beds on a simple grid, wide gravel paths for a barrow and a long border of flowers for the kitchen table.
Perennials hold the edges through winter, so the garden still looks cared for when the beds are empty.
