Greg grew most of his family’s food for the year in his backyard garden, building raised beds out of pallets and old shingles! See his garden layout plus some beautiful garden photos for ideas and inspiration.

Greg Morse from Bagley, Minnesota created a large 34’ 11” x 34’ 11” backyard garden using both traditional rows and raised beds made out of pallets. His garden also included mobile pallet planters as well as drip irrigation, row covers, and a hoop house.  As you can see from the photos Greg submitted, it’s been a very productive garden! He’s be happy to hear from other northern gardeners.

Greg’s Vegetable Plot Plan

The raised beds were made out of shingle pallets cut in half, height 20”. The rows and square foot gardening was incorporated all together with lots of plasticulture used to extend cold, short northern growing season.
