Raised beds are gardening structures where soil is elevated above the surrounding ground level, typically enclosed by wooden, stone, or metal frames. They improve drainage, provide better soil quality, and make gardening more accessible by reducing the need to bend over. Raised beds can enhance plant growth by warming the soil earlier in the spring and can help control weeds and pests more effectively. They are popular in both home gardens and community gardening projects.
