Overview

Made with solid cedar, this deer and pest proof 8' x 8' x 20" garden kit offers 45 square feet of gardening space, and is perfect for a family of four.

If you are looking to jump into gardening quickly, and do not want to deal with the chore of pest proofing and the challenge of irrigating your garden beds, this kit is perfect. The included 5' 7" high fence stops deer and other pests from jumping into your garden, while doubling as a trellis for tomatoes, peas, beans, cucumber and other climbing plants.

Features & Benefits:

  • Deer Proof – 5 foot 7 inch high fence doubles as a trellis, while preventing deer from jumping into the garden.
  • Raised Garden Beds – 20” tall raised beds mean you don’t have to bend down as far, and the soil will retain more moisture than shorter beds. Soil fills right to the bottom. Perfect for growing all sorts of vegetables, herbs, fruit and flowers.
  • Gate –  Easy access for planting and weeding through included door.
  • Solid Cedar Construction – Durable 1-1/8" untreated cedar lumber, naturally rot resistant.
  • Hardware Included – Rust proof screws, brackets, and hinges.
  • Optional Automatic Watering System – and timer waters your garden for you.

Assembly:

You can assemble this deer proof raised garden bed kit yourself, or have a local handyperson follow the instructions and set it up for you. Assembly can take 4-5 hours, and adding the soil (75 cubic feet) can take an additional few hours. Note that no digging is required as the entire structure sits directly on the ground. Select a sunny and level piece of land for your garden.

All of our fencing sections are approximately 33.5 inches high and backed with black mesh. When the fencing is delivered, the mesh is already affixed. So, it takes only minutes to attach the fencing sections to the garden beds. At 67 inches in total height, the fence will keep out deer, rabbits and dogs. Up close, it looks attractive, but from a distance you can't even see it.

Please note, due to its large size, this item is not eligible to be returned or canceled once it has shipped. If you have any questions, please reach out before your purchase.

Optional Automatic Watering System:

Located at the back corner of the raised cedar garden bed with deer fence, this automatic soaker hose watering system takes even the simplest of duties out of your hands. We use a digital battery operated controller that is very easy to use. A garden hose can be connected to the unit, or the hose adaptor can be removed so the irrigation unit can be tied into your existing irrigation system with piping. When the controller turns on, water seeps out through the 75 ft. soaker hose. Includes:

  • Digital Battery Operated Controller - automatically waters your garden.
  • Soaker Hose - lay hose around your plants, cover with a layer of mulch, and water seeps out when the controller turns on.
  • Coiled Hose - conveniently mounted in the walkway of the fenced garden.
  • Sprayer - attaches to end of the coiled hose. You can manually spray your plants if you choose to, or use the hose to wash your hands.

Please note this irrigation system works best if your water pressure (psi) is between 10 and 80. If the psi is greater than 80, the programmable timer in our system could be damaged. We recommend purchasing a water pressure regulator that will take your water pressure down to 40 psi.

Shipping:

The 8' x 8' deer proof raised garden bed kit ships in 5 boxes.

    Easy to put together

    Straight forward construction. Biggest challenge is leveling. Started filling it and looking forward to planting

    Love it

    Well made, clear instructions, great product. Well worth the cost and time to assemble. I sealed it before assembly and put up deer fence after filling and planting. If you are at all hesitating, don’t!!!!

    Great kit - needs a top door frame

    It was a great kit. Only slightly harder to build than ikea furniture because of the pre-drilling necessary. The hardest part by far was leveling it enough and I ended up having a problem with the top corner hitting the door after some settling. We built a bar above to hold the door frame apart which I think would be a good addition to the kit. I was surprised the netting and hinges were plastic but they seem sturdy and won’t rust so we’ll see how they hold up.

    Fun Project

    It did take a few days to put together, but it was easy and the instructions were easy to follow. We decided to use planter boxes instead of filling it all with dirt. I also would recommend doing the clear coat to protect the wood and brightens up the wood color. All in all it was a good investment and can't wait to see the garden results.

    Deer be gone

    Love the unit so far and it is very attractive. It took longer than 4 hours to assemble but was very doable. One suggestion would be to have actual pictures in the directions because with the black it was hard the see which piece went where. But overall it’s great.

    Planter with a cover

    Great product. Well made. Two of us assembled it in about three hours. We then decided to design and add our own cover. That was about three hours of work and another $250. Now it is squirrel and raccoon proof as well !!

    Nice Looking Kit with Straightforward Directions

    The kit came packaged well with all parts accounted for and undamaged. With a well prepared and leveled site for the garden, the assembly is pretty simple though it takes a fair amount of time to keep things squared and even. Clamps are recommended and I would say essential if working alone. My only disappointment is with the statement in the instructions claiming that the 3 year warranty is void if you don’t line the interior of the soil boxes. The vast majority of garden websites and experienced gardeners specifically recommend NOT lining the sides of wooden raised beds as that inevitably leads to moisture trapped between the liner and the wood and FASTER degradation of the wood. Other than that, I’m very pleased with this kit.
