My landlord wouldn't allow me to till the backyard for a garden, but he did allow me to build a raised garden.
Last year, I made a single 8'x4'x1' raised garden.
We found that 4' was just too much to reach.
This year I moved things around and made (1) 8'x2'x1', and (3) 8'x2'x6"raised gardens.
Now I just gotta fill it with dirt and plants.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.My beds are 4' wide and about right for me. I have to work from both sides though. And I'm beginning to get lazier. 4' high and 1' wide garden beds sound about right to me now.

Nah, cemetery is in the tree lines with all the buried pets. 
I kind of went crazy and built a 20'x12' bed. I guess is really more of a walled garden than a raised bed haha

Unfortunately the back yard is on the north side of the property. So they are as far north as I can get them to get the most sunlight from the south as possible. ( house shadow)
