What garden tools do I need for a raised bed?
In raised beds, use a digging fork to loosen and aerate soil prior to planting. In large vegetable gardens, a standard bow rake comes in handy for working soil and smoothing out beds prior to planting. A hoe is a go-to tool for weeding and working soil, especially in vegetable gardens.
Should I till my raised garden bed?
Raised Garden Beds Don’t Need Tilling – If you minimize the use of pesticides, microbes and other life forms in the soil will break it all down. Planting and light cultivating will mix and aerate the soil a bit, but you won’t disturb the soil enough to bring buried weeds seeds to the surface.
