Is this wood safe for building raised beds for vegetables? How
can I tell if it is treated or not?


Thanks.

Pallets are usually branded with either the name of the pallet company who
recycles them around different users or with the name of the user. Phone
them and ask what the timber is. In these parts the timber is either
hardwood (not treated) or softwood (treated). The nature of the treatment
varies and some have more heavy metals than others.
