This week’s project
Bought the materials for this herb garden box last December.
Minor delay encountered in January: failed attempt at low flying.
Then winter happened. As it is made from eight sleepers, it is too heavy to move, and had to be built in situ.
Weather has finally warmed enough to work outdoors. Took two days to build & fill (with existing herbs in pots of assorted sizes & colours — repotted in uniform sized pots).

Treated pine?
If it is, just be aware of the poisons used in some types of treated pine.

Aware of that.
All herbs in pots, no soil contact with box.
Plan is to fill around pots with sawdust.

PROGRESS REPORT:
Three weeks post-transplant and all herbs doing great! Of course, keeping the dirt in the pots is a problem...

I liked it the first way. You could just hold a bowl underneath and snip the herbs straight in.
