What happens here
Repeat the entire construction process for any additional raised beds needed. The video shows the builder constructing a second identical raised bed next to the first one. Once all beds are built, allow them to sit for about a week to settle and fully dry. Then, fill them with garden soil (which the builder plans to retrieve from a large pile using a tractor) and top with composted cow manure. As a final touch for weed control, spread a layer of sawdust around the base of the completed raised beds.
Goal: Complete multiple raised beds and make them ready for gardening
