Build a garden bed from packing pallets

Lifehacker AU

The Home Green Home blog demonstrates
how you can build a garden bed from old packing pallets — and all
this in a space barely 4 metres by 4 metres. In our recent discussion
about how big Australian houses need to be,
one reader argued that a big backyard was essential for growing
vegetables. This video shows that compact living is not necessarily
incompatible with a green thumb and a copious supply of salad.

    Is treated wood safe to use for gardens? Could the chemicals leach out of the wood and into the soil?
