Mona - Thanks! I'm a budget gardener. My dh and I build everything in the yard and have saved a lot of money. Unfortunately, my budget is zero in 2010. I had plans to build a small pergola at the very back of my house using the cattle panels and 4' x 4's as well as other pieces of lumber to do the roof of the pergola. That project is on hold until the economy improves and money isn't so tight.

The 3-tiered bed is 8' x 8' on the bottom, 4' x 4' in the middle and 2' x 2' on the top. I just used 2" x 6" lumber and screwed it together at the corners. :-) The hardest part was filling it with soil, compost, and mulch. Plants were the fun part! :-) I've grow seeds into gorgeous plants in that garden bed, too!
