The book describes a 4' x 8' raised bed made from 2'x 8's and filled with a precise mix of soil and nutrients that vegetables love. I followed the directions and easily constructed the bed in about an hour while my son watched and drew with sidewalk chalk on the driveway. The more time-consuming task was taking up the sod, tilling the ground to break up the hard earth and partially filling the bed with the soil elements. I used a small gas powered tiller to mix it all together. It worked like an egg beater and mixed it all up just right.
