Hi, can anyone give any advice and help regarding making or buying
raised beds for school gardening club. We have very limited funds and
would like the cheapest option. Thanks for any suggestions

Could you ask a lumberyard to donate the board feet required to
set up the raised beds? They could write it off as a donation,
and you could give them publicity by naming the beds after
the business. If this works, they might even saw to your measure.
Then you could purchase (or maybe get as a donation), the
"spikes" or fasteners for the corners of the beds.
Couldn't hurt to ask! Sell it as a community enrichment project
which would give them a positive image in the community.
