Building my first raised garden bed was a wild ride. I thought it would be a quick weekend project, but measuring straight lines is way harder than it looks. My boards ended up at weird angles, and the whole thing looked like it was about to tip over. But I just rolled with it. Turns out, plants don’t care if their home is a little wonky. I filled it up with good soil, tossed in some seeds, and watched everything grow like crazy. The best part? Every time I see those crooked edges, I remember how much fun I had putting it together. If you’re thinking about starting a garden, don’t stress about making it perfect. The plants—and the memories—are what really matter. #gardening #DIYprojects #growyourown #urbanfarming
