How to Build an L-Shaped Raised Garden Bed
An L-shaped raised garden bed fits perfectly in the corner of a yard and offers ample gardening space while keeping all plants within reach. You can create an L-shaped garden bed by combining two of our Homestead Cedar Raised Garden Bed. Please view the instructions before starting your project.

1. Gather the materials you need

  • 2 - Raised garden bed kits
  • 2 - Nail plates or fastener of your choice
  • Hammer
  • Cordless drill

2. Create the two long sides by combining the side assemblies.

Find a flat surface such as a patio or create one using the side assemblies that aren't being used (see photo for example.) Place two side assemblies on the flat surface, nail plates up, and slide ends together so they are flush.

Fasten the two sides together. We used a nail plate and a hammer, but there are other ways to do it. You could toe-nail the two sides together or use another fastener of your choosing. Repeat to create the second long side.

3. Create the large L-shape.

Slide the two long sides together at a 90-degree angle with the nail plates facing inward. Fasten through the two pre-drilled holes using included screws.

4. Create the small L-shape.

Slide two short sides together at a 90-degree angle with the finished sides facing inward. Fasten through the two pre-drilled holes using included screws.

5. Connect the two L-shapes together using a short board in your kit.

Position the two L-shapes a few feet from each other and connect them with a short board from your kit. With corners flush and square, fasten the short side through the pre-drilled holes using screws. Repeat for the other side.

There you have it! A completed L-shaped raised garden bed. Now, get ready to prep the area and plant.
